It's hard to find the perl package here[1] since it's hidden
between all other kinds of perl stuff. This would be way
easier if exact matches (perl in this case) were at the top
of the first page.
I know about ?name=perl, but I think this would still be a good (maybe better) solution since it doesn't require the user to specify if an exact match is wanted or not. [1]: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?q=perl |

Florian, didn't ignore your work, thanks for the inspiration there. Just ran into some problems when testing it out- pagination and loading the full queryset into memory, which isn't ideal for a search like 'perl', 'python', etc. Decided it would be easier to simply add a second table to the page for exact match results.
