Funding could help, but it still requires PyPI/Warehouse to ship and operate a new public search interface that is safe at internet scale.

They operate a public package hosting interface, how is a search one any harder?

Pypi has a search interface on their public website, though?

If you really need it, they publish a dump regularly and you can query that.

For simple use cases, you have the web search, and you can curl it.
