Suggestion - search could be context sensitive.

It would be much better, if the search icon was context sensitive to the media section you're in. For example, I might want to find all the albums by a specific artist, so if I am in "album artist" mode, the search would be confined to that category. If I am in "artist" mode... I get matching artists etc...

Maybe the side bar search icon, and the main search icon could have slightly different functionality. As the side bar effectively appears within the selected category, it would seem logical to tie them together.

It would make navigating through large music collections much easier, and quicker. Especially for people like myself, who are using this solely for controlling the music side of media centre. I don't have movies, photos, TV or Radio through media centre, just my CD collection.

Sweet idea. I will review this.
