Wow, I didn't realize search had changed so much. I really need to pay 
attention to those release notes.

The five laws of concatenation, which I just made up:

Wikitext can't eat Wikitext
Wikitext can't eat Widgets
Widgets can't eat Widgets
Widgets CAN eat Wikitext.
Wikify can sometimes bend laws 1 through 3

The following version may be too distant from what you wanted, but might 
serve as a start. It did work in my quick test:

\define ppfilter(pp) [tag[data_page]search:text:literal["father": 
"{{!!parent_page}}"]]

<$wikify name=search text=<<ppfilter>>> 
Variable: <<search>>
<$list filter=<<search>> >

* Search Result: {{!!title}}
</$list>
</$wikify>
