Details
It seems to be practice to only search for terms in the summary field. If users pick the wrong terms, they file dups. This leads some people to add these terms to the summary of the old bug. However, this approaches adding all synonyms to the summary and almost all cases clutters the summary field unnecessarily, making it much harder for me to mentally parse the summary in bugmail, plus the subject field is of limited width anyways. IMO, the summary should be concise: short and clear. A better solution would be to add a bug field "search terms". These alternative terms could be added there, and whenever the summary is searched, these search terms are included. The summary can stay concise.
