Yes, it's not ideal. We had some discussions about this in the
past, but I think the preference is to deploy an improved listing
instead of no listing at all. I don't remember what the current
status of the alternative search is,someone else can fill this
in.
Personally I'm in favor of erasing the /packages page (until we
have an improved alternative), no one likes pages which kill your
browser process - which happens with some current browsers when
you visit our packages page. Better have no listing than to have
a listing which leaves a bad impressions by loading long and
eventually make your browser crash.
