Improve the search using weighted fields and sorting by WoT
Currently the search returns results in a quite random order:
The correct utxo profile is below the first view, after many impostors and random users.
Some updates can improve the UX:
- Give a different weight to different fields, for example the name is more important than bio or other metadata fields;
- Sort results by Wot;
- Add a dropdown to filter the results' kind;
These two factors often collide since they both apply a sort. A quick solution can be transforming the WoT in a factor to add to the calculated weight, and anyway finally sort equal weight by WoT. Of course we weighting algo needs also take in consideration different kinds (profiles, notes, ...).
