Currently the search is a "tag-only" search, but as a photo might have the relevant search string in it's title, wouldn’t it be better to search tags AND title simultaneously? This would lead to more relevant search results.

I this will reside in an advanced search feature that doesn't yet exist. We can track it with this issue. Updating the title to reflect that.

Assigning to @walkah to start thinking about this.

I have to confess that I find really useless that search allows only to search for tags and albums: those are easy to find through their own pages. It is a title or a description that I look for to find when I make a search! Hopes this goes on.

Honestly, I think at this point the best solution here is to either add full text indexes in MySql or do simple LIKE '%keyword%' searches. This can be added directly into the DatabaseMySql.php and DatabaseInterface.php files.

Branch gh-173-advanced-search has LIKE functionality and searches across title, description and filenameOriginal fields.

Added keyword support to the search form in the header, merged into master and deleted the gh-173-advanced-search branch.
