Comment (by zodiac1978):

 > Not entirely true. The main site search is using a Google Custom Search,
 and the international forums are indexed and included in that search
 engine.

 Indeed, but it is really confusing for our users. Especially if they
 search for Plugin-Names and Functions and they get another URL with mostly
 english results.

 > It may be desirable to do individual language searching on those forums
 though.

 Yes, please! There is a language specific search for these forums already:
 http://de.forums.wordpress.org/search.php?q=test

 But it is not used on the start page. Maybe this can be changed (and make
 the global google custom search an additional option or so)
