Registered by Raghuram Gundimeda

An easy, quick, random and direct navigation to a specific feature, element or data is a substantial
value-add and highly recommended for such enterprise grade, massively scalable software solution as OpenStack.

[raghuram-gundimeda 07-03-2014] A brief description of the proposal can be found here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/g9oh8ntn0almzcj/Blueprint%20-%20Global%20Search%20Navigation%20in%20OpenStack%20UI.pdf

[lblanchard 07-08-2014] I think this is an excellent idea to put together a design for a global search for OpenStack. We've been wanting to improve the information architecture as well as shown by the UXblueprint here (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/openstack-ux/+spec/horizon-ia-improvement) and the Horizon blueprint here (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/horizon/+spec/improve-ia) and I think both target similar needs for an easy way for users to jump into the specific section/workflow they need to accomplish their task.

[raghuram-gundimeda 07-09-2014] Thanks much Liz! I'll start off on the design right away. Will also plan next steps to closely work with development through the design phase.
