Using CirrusSearch directly for MediaSearch instead of an API call (T252685) should give us search syntax support automatically (such as keywords/filters (ie gold intitle:gym), quotes, and booleans). However, using those search syntax features currently will revert the results back to those in Special:Search, instead of MediaSearch. This ticket is to support search syntax features in MediaSearch without reverting to Special:Search results.

This ticket is to support search syntax features in MediaSearch without reverting to Special:Search results. Notes from Matthias: Negation etc. is becoming a lot more complex now that the data goes out to multiple sources. So -dog no longer means that dog may not exist in the text. There may also not be any dog entity attached and it may not appear in caption. Same with boolean operations. Dog AND cat may be satisfied by cat being in wikitext and dog as depicts statement. It's going to be a lot of work - if at all possible - to get it that complex.
