Description Subfader 2012-01-17 15:03:37 UTC 
The prexif input on Special:Allmessages is useless 99% of the time and therefor extremely user unfriendly.

Add a (additional?) proper search input instead. The results should be displayed like the prefix input.

A lame workaround would be to link that input to Special:Search with the MediaWiki NS selected (Special:Search&profile=advanced&search=foo&fulltext=Search&ns8=1), but that would result non-messages pages like gadgets as well.

Similar to bug 20858. Dupe even?
