How can it be a general statement? Desktop search is pretty clearly defined in my eyes. To make things clear, let me put things a bit on the edge: "We want Spotlight (C) functionality in Gnome. We want it in a pervasive way not just grafted on.". Seriously; look through the Spotlight documentation (there's a great deal actually). Come back and say this in not well defined.
