Feature request: search regions, collections

Hi,

It would be great if you could add the keyword 'search' to be added to a collection or region options to filter it based on a search query. This would work well for inline filtering of collections that uses ajax to return the results. This way, we'd also be able to add custom templates to search by leveraging existing Perch functionality.

Would you favour that over adding the functionality to narrow the main search functions?

I guess it could make more sense in the main search function, given that you can currently restrict search to apps.

There's a few things I'm trying to do with search that don't currently seem possible but would be nice. Pagination would be good, as well as the ability to filter search based on categories.

Another nice to have would be to know the app or collection the result is for, allowing conditional templates within search.

Ignore the pagination comment! Although it is missing the pagination-var and page-links options?
