archives search

I'd just like to point out a flow in the searching on
archives.postgresql.org. It seems to be searching not just the messages
but the web pages of the archives that show the messages. This makes
certain searches useless. For example in trying to search on unicode and
cygwin in pg-hackers, I get a list of results that have no relevance to
cygwin. The search results will look like the following, in which one
sees the word Cygwin highlighted as a hit.

I could not figure out where that hit was coming from at first as I
didn't even see the text of "Cygwin PgSQL" on the page anywhere when I
clicked to the message. A View source made it apparent. This hit was on
text in the drop down box for "Search in" in the search form at the top
of  the page!!! This makes the archives pretty much unsearchable for any
words that occur in any of the html surrounding the actual messages on
the archives site.
