I think it'd exclude one important use case for tech support, where you have a friend using xubuntu/lubuntu asking you for help and you look it up on their behalf, or perhaps someone is interested in searching how another desktop does something.

I gave some thought as to locking the results to the version of ubuntu with the "12.04" tag and so on, as well as other tricks, but then I was thinking we'd overcomplicate it and end up with something worse... the site and community are already doing the quality filtering, the trick is just to figure out where we want that line to be.

BTW, I came to the number "2" as a baseline because it would require at least 2 people in the community upvoting to judge it as a quality question. I figure it's a decent place to start and then we can adjust later if need be. Would it make sense to have the minimum threshold as a gsettings value so we can have people try different scores and combinations?
