 it.
 I'd agree. I've always thought it's a bit weird to have that drop down
 appear only after the first search and I wonder how many users are aware
 they can search also by username or tag. We're in 2016 and ideally a
 search should search for anything, without asking users to specify
 keyword/author/key search types. Silently removing the functionality would
 be something to carefully consider though. Also, see this meta ticket
