It actually looks advanced enough for the types of searches I do, and I'm in the kind-of-advanced user segment. Can you provide examples of searches that you would perform in Bugzilla but cannot perform here?

What specific features could we request upstream?

Without more information or more opinions I can't create any meaningful task upstream.

I had the same feeling initially until chatting with upstream devs to realize that I might need to question my criteria for queries instead and if they are really the only way to find out something specific (e.g. forgotten reports in this case).

Nemo: Which *exact* queries are you missing? This needs specific, defined examples about functionality and its usecases...

Closing. Please reopen if you have a specific example.
