malone search broken, needs search by submitter feature

Hi

I found it very hard to find a bug I had reported in Bugzilla after it
had been migrated into Malone.

I would usually search by submitter=<my mail address> in Bugzilla, but
Malone doesn't appear to support this.  It would be a very useful
addition.

I would also try to search by the package the bug is reported in, but I
can't find where to do this either!

Failing this, I tried searching for common words in the bug summary, and
think it should have been found that way, but the description had been
changed since I reported it, so I wasn't sure if I was searching for the
correct description.

I was searching for variations on "keys not working", "keys
unsupported", "random keys", but none of them turned up bug 25954
(https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-keyboard/+bug/25954).

(I found the correct bug number by going back to Bugzilla and searching
by submitter then following the link to Malone.)

Even searching for the bug's exact summary "random extra keys are
unsupported" on the search page
(https://launchpad.net/malone/distros/ubuntu) doesn't find it. :-(
