Show search results in a dialog
At the moment when you start searching the app navigates to a new page. This means that if you were creating or editing a resource you'll lose all progress and have to start over. Quickly checking if a certain resource exists while editing is therefore not possible. Showing the results in a dialog above the current page would solve this as you would be able to close the dialog and continue with whatever it was you were doing.

It does introduce some issues however as having the searchbar and the dialog visable at the same time will require some work/thinking.

That should not be the case, as every change is persisted in memory - even if you navigate away.

Seems like a pretty cool improvement - modal-like search, right?

So we'd get two modals? Would stacking them make sense?
