I am still not very convinced. The principal issue I have is that it's
too much close to what we display for breadcrumb (like in "Main: Welcome
to XWiki Enterprise Incubator > Dashboard"), while not the same concept.
I'd like we get more feedback on this topic before we go on with it. It
probably means we have to decide on a strategy for the future for
displaying the different kinds of paths inside the wiki (wiki>space>page
path as in the proposal, and full parent/children path).
JV? Laurent?
For all the rest it's very good and I'm +1 to get started implementing
it in XE as soon as we can.

Very cool Caty! The UI is fresh :)
I have two question:
- Is the breadcrum a real breadcrum that take into account the
parent/children relationship ? It seems not, so I would say the choice
of ">" in "Located in xwiki > Main >
ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise12" as a
separator for wiki/space/page is confusing, and not consistent with
other UIs like the new Treeview. I think habing it "Located in
xwiki:Main.ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise12" makes more sense.
I know this looks like a technical way of presenting thing, but
ultimately we want our users to be able to understand this notation by
synchronizing the wiki explorer and its suggest field, so for me it's ok
to use it in other places. Maybe adding spaces around separators make it
more readable: "Located in xwiki : Main . ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise12"
It's not the actual page breadcrumb for the sake of simplicity + clarity ->
breadcrumbs can become quite long, which would clutter the interface.
Additionnally, the new dashboard (+ currently hidden space dashboard)
reinforce the notion of pages in spaces, thus it makes sense to display them
in the search. It tells the user where the page is located, which combined
with the title helps him locate it and understand why it's there.
About the way it should be displayed, I'm not sure using the technical
notation makes much sense here... The ">" symbol is often used to symbolize
that kind of relationship while ":" & "." come "out of
nowhere"... Thus
interface-wise keeping ">" seems better to me. - There is no title in the page, is this a design
choice ?
Yes it's a design choice suggested by Laurent, putting a title actually
distact the user from the search bar. Since the search bar is the most
important elemetn on the page, it should be displayed prominently - thus in
practice replacing the title.
Guillaume
Thanks, keep up the good designs !
Jerome.

Hi devs,
You can see some dummy text for the proposal running in
http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ListWebSearch
I've done the HTML+CSS+icons+Translations. I've removed the filters
background from the original proposal so that it can be much cleaner
integrated with the current look of Toucan.
I would really want to know what you think.
Caty
