 Search for a new plugin within WordPress needs some new filters based on
 downloads and star rating in addition to Keyword, Author or Tag.

 If I was searching for a contact form and wrote "contact form".
 By keyword the first result would be the plugin Contact Form.
 By Author well I do not know.
 By Tag then MW WP Form plugin comes up first.

 This makes it difficult to find the most popular plugins and the user ends
 up shifting through pages trying to find the most downloaded one to try
 out.
