Okay new feature.

If you're logged in, you'll see a link to "suggest a better result."

Submissions here go into a moderation queue, like comments on a WP blog.

If you're a forum moderator, you can go here:

http://wordpress.org/search/search-admin/

And see what's in the queue and approve or delete them.

If something is approved, it shows above the results, like in this silly 
example:

http://wordpress.org/search/matt

Think of it like adwords, but for useful information. We can use it to 
highlight resources that either aren't on wordpress.org or that don't 
show up properly in the search results.

Useful addition? Waste of time?
