Comment (by coffee2code):

 Confirmed. Just to clarify, there ''is'' a "Search forums" search form on
 each plugin/theme support forum, within a secondary navbar below the site
 navbar. This was also present in the old theme (but within the site
 navbar). This search form searches all support forums.

 However, the old theme also had a "Search this forum" search field above
 the topic table (and next to the "Create Topic" button). This forum-
 specific search field would search ''just'' the topics from that
 plugin/theme. This second search field differed from the first by
 appending an "intext" search filter to what is ultimately a Google search
 (e.g. turning a forum search for `error` into `error intext:"Plugin:
 Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection"`).
