The search bar is an incredibly useful feature - it made Fiji accessible for me 🎉

However, when I look e.g. at our ilastik4ij plugin, i'll have to add a small "but" to the praise above. The search bar will only show results that correspond to menu entries. For our plugin, one menu is ilastik -> run Pixel Classification. Now, only when a user types "Pixel Classification" she will get the correct result. I on the other hand would try "ilastik" as a search term first, and this command doesn't come up. There is a related discussion here: ilastik/ilastik4ij#61.

I'll quote @haesleinhuepf to make a suggestion for improvement:

We should tag our plugins to categorize them. We might also find an automated way of setting some tags. E.g. a plugin with "Threshold" in its name can safely go to a "Segmentation" category. Last but not least: I'd say some plugins should appear in several menus. The "ilastik Pixel Classification" should for example show up in "Segmentation". Some other plugins (like the deprecated ones) should not appear in any menu and still be callable. But maybe that doesn't belong here ;-)
