Laying QuickSearch to rest

Gentlemen,
How would you feel if we quietly sent QuickSearch off to be with its
forefathers?
Now we have a more usable query.cgi, and Myk's full text searching
stuff, it seems much less necessary. It's always been a bit of a hack,
having arcane syntax, requiring JavaScript, not being very well
integrated, and all that sort of thing.
The person who wrote it, Andreas Franke, hasn't been around for a while,
and it hasn't really been maintained.
(This thought occurred to me as I was about to convert the quicksearch
HTML pages to page.cgi pages.)
