If you think the best course of action is to:
* Assemble a panel of journalists using airgap Tails
* Prepare a tails with nautilus + tracker integration
* Conduct a UX study to assert they need and actually use this search tool and benefit from it
* Summarize the findings of the study in a report
* Present the report to Tails developers and kindly ask if this search tool could be integrated in Tails
I'd be happy to do that. It will take a few months but it will prove that journalists actually benefit from having a full text search tool for their work.

Sounds like a plan :-) Would you mind giving me the URL of a good "discuss ticket" so that I can create one that will be a good introduction to this general discussion ?
Thanks for your guidance !
