Btw, since search.cpan.org code is not available anywhere, only few people 
knows what it does and how it does. The proper way of communicating things like 
this one is listed in http://search.cpan.org/feedback :

"If you have any feedback about this site, its design or how it presents the 
information, then please send an Email to cpansea...@perl.org"

Your email will enter into RT and someone (most probably GBARR) will answer it 
sometime.
