It seems like there are also a bunch of hacky search-alike features built
into the mediawiki database.  For example, "all pages linking to this
page", "my contributions", etc.  From a code cleanup standpoint, it would
also be worthwhile if these were all unified and brought together under a
single search engine.

It would be really nice if the search engine allowed me to make these sorts
of queries in a query language, so that I could combine features.  "All
pages which I have contributed to which link to Foo.jpg and have the word
Bar in them", for example.

This would potentially simplify the codebase as well as provide a
capability google.com does not.
