Thanks for the suggestion Bob, but I think it misses the point.
There's an entire category of articles (in this example, the category
'tips' which is a subcategory of 'wiki') that's being ignored.

Secondly, lets just say that I did have a "start" article with the
word "tips" somewhere in the body.  The other articles in the
namespace / category of wiki:tips are still being ignored.  Shouldn't
they also be returned in the search?

My recommendation is this: the current search results comes back with
two match sets, the first for matching article names, the second for
matching article bodies.  My recommendation is that a third result set
should be included: matching namespaces.
