In [changeset:"14809" 14809]:
{{{
#!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="14809"
Plugin Directory: Search: Restore slug boosting in the search algorithm.
This was a bug introduced in [13640], which went unnoticed due to a desire
to reduce reliance upon slugs for search boosting.
Slug boosting has some legitimate uses however, so this is being restored
for the time being.
Props jeangalea, gibrown.
See #8225/
