Comment (by helen):

 [attachment:32710.5.diff] experiments with better messaging and hiding the
 sections of available items when running a search. It is by no means a
 production-ready patch - I'm looking for gut reactions here.

 Does the following:

 * When running a search, hide the available items sections.
 * Search section always has a gray background to help visually separate
 it.
 * Removes the click handler for searching - unclear to me why it's there,
 easy to restore.
 * Shuffles some order of cases in the JS search function and fixes a usage
 of `this.searchTerm` that appears to need to be `event.target.value`
 instead.

 There are a few things that are not polished. There definitely needs to be
 at least one explicit way to clear search results / get back to the
 sections of all available items. The fade out/in is just a basic one,
 could likely use fine tuning in terms of timing and specific animation (if
 any) if we go this route. I'm also not sure infinite scroll works for
 search results given the height change.
