It's not the actual page breadcrumb for the sake of simplicity + clarity ->
breadcrumbs can become quite long, which would clutter the interface.
Additionnally, the new dashboard (+ currently hidden space dashboard)
reinforce the notion of pages in spaces, thus it makes sense to display them
in the search. It tells the user where the page is located, which combined
with the title helps him locate it and understand why it's there.
About the way it should be displayed, I'm not sure using the technical
notation makes much sense here... The ">" symbol is often used to symbolize
that kind of relationship while ":" & "." come "out of nowhere"... Thus
interface-wise keeping ">" seems better to me.

Yes it's a design choice suggested by Laurent, putting a title actually
distact the user from the search bar. Since the search bar is the most
important elemetn on the page, it should be displayed prominently - thus in
practice replacing the title.
