I'm currently non-publisher, and I search the site quite frequently to
investigate for compatibility of Gems for projects I'm building.

To do so requires two clicks - going to browse, (which isn't analogous
to search, which catches me if it's been a while), then searching.

Could we pretty please have a search box on the front page?

Thanks for a wicked-awesome, essential resource.
