 Hi.

 I seriously believe that there should be an option to choose between
 search on 'any' or 'post'. This could be changed from the admin panel.

 In some projects i don't need/want to searh on pages, so i have to
 manually change 'any' for 'post on:

 {{{
         if ( !isset($q['post_type']) ) {
                         if ( $this->is_search )
                                 $q['post_type'] = 'any';
                         else
                                 $q['post_type'] = 'post';
 }}}

 I think this can't be hard to implement (an option in the backend, a row
 in wp_options [maybe wp_blogs in case of wpmu] and a modification on the
 code above to ask for that option).

 Please consider implementing this. It has been stuck like this since 2.4
 and still is on 2.7.1

 Thanks!
