 * Searches are so fast, that they are tough to notice, especially if you
 are a touch typer. If the current theme is returned, it is even worse. In
 3.7, the current theme was never shown below the fold, so this wasn't a
 problem.

  * When a search matches an author name, we show the author in a clever
 overlay box. But, this is open to false positives. We should wait for the
 third letter to then show the author name. (We can still match the theme
 until then, just avoid flickering the author name.) Or we could debounce
 it, waiting for them to stop typing long enough before showing shorter
 matches. (To make Zé happy.)
