There were some helpful comments recently (were they on-list or at
debconf...?), so it's on my list of things to revisit soon.  Please
hold off for a month or so.  It's been like that for a long while -
surely another month won't hurt.

If you must change it, why not do it with the right sort of redirect
on search.d.o, rather than rewriting the search box?
