Comment (by jhpalmieri):

 Those `search_*` functions are only available when you're running Sage,
 while the documentation search page just needs the build documentation —
 no need for Sage to be running. So that's one reason why they're not
 integrated, and probably why they shouldn't be.

 I'm imagining text like "You can also run `search_src(...)` from while
 running Sage to search the source code. You can also browse the source
 code by running `hg_sage.serve()` from Sage."

 Re `search_def('blah')`: it is like `search_src('blah')`, but it restricts
 its search to lines of the form `def blah` or `cdef blah`, so it sees both
 functions and methods which contain 'blah' in their name.
