A switch in the search options to "Include users' home projects" could be performed manually, which contains often the missed software. But it would be a simple time saving modification when the search would do the switch automatic when the Software is in no regular repro. To point it out: When it could not found in the regular repros, show the user the results with the home repros and not show: "No packages found in the openSUSE build service that matched your query. Maybe you want to extend your search using the search options."
