The ability to add a custom search.inc (ModuleName_search class) file to each module to centralize searchs is great, but now users are not just searching for TEXT, they also are looking for images or video, o for items (in example CDS, computer parts parts etc) where a little image (if exists)showed on results would improve usability and functionality to the search.

Also, using the main search module for coppermine only shows text when youre looking for images... (but the coppermine search feature show images in results !).

IMO this can be achieved easy, adding customs templates for search results
since every search class for every module will work different, or add support for the
"results" handler to show thumbs and the ability to be templated.

Well, you can create a hook to coppermine and return <img>?

For current and older DF versions you can modify this section of search.inc

PHP:

<?php
		$ccnt = $db->sql_query("SELECT p.filename, p.filepath, p.title, p.caption, p.keywords, p.user1, p.user2, p.user3, p.user4, p.pid, p.aid FROM {$CONFIG['TABLE_PICTURES']} AS p INNER JOIN {$CONFIG['TABLE_ALBUMS']} AS a ON (p.aid = a.aid AND ".VIS_GROUPS.") WHERE MATCH(filename, p.title, caption, keywords,user1,user2,user3,user4) AGAINST ('$search*' IN BOOLEAN MODE) AND approved='1' GROUP BY pid LIMIT $first,".($limit+1),false,__FILE__,__LINE__);
		$nrows = $db->sql_numrows($ccnt);

		while (list($filename, $filepath, $title, $caption, $keywords, $user1, $user2, $user3, $user4, $pid, $aid) = $db->sql_fetchrow($ccnt)) {
			if ($title != '') {
			// do nothing.
			} else if ($caption != '') {
				$title = $caption;
			} else if ($keywords != '') {
				$title = $keywords;
			} else if ($user1 != '') {
				$title = $user1;
			} else if ($user2 != '') {
				$title = $user2;
			} else if ($user3 != '') {
				$title = $user3;
			} else if ($user4 != '') {
				$title = $user4;
			} else if ($filename != '') {
				$title = $filename;
			} else {
				$title = 'Click to view image';
			}
			$item['title'] = substr($title, 0, 64);
			$item['url']= getlink("$cpg_dir&amp;file=displayimage&amp;album=$aid&amp;pid=$pid");
			$item['short_text'] = substr(strip_tags($caption), 0, 256);
			$item['image'] = $filepath.'thumb_'.$filename;
			$this->add_result($item);
		}

Similarly, you can already do the same for any module you have.
