 When using My Settings (Control Panel), the search input in the top left
 has no effect on the control panel modules displayed. I'm not sure what
 the original design intent of this was, but it could:

 1) grey out modules that don't match the search text (similar concept as
 per Mac OS X System preferences search, though this includes extra
 keywords so a range of related words find useful modules i.e "clock" could
 highlight the date & time module)

 2) hide all non-matching modules and reflow the view, (perhaps auto reflow
 is something worth considering any way, as the grid of module icons seems
 to have their layout hard-coded which breaks with screen resolution
 changes and locale string length variations).

 3) typing in the search field could just drop down a menu of matching
 module names (perhaps with icons also) as you type.
