IMO, it is because zope.org doesn't allow you to filter the search based
on what you are looking for. It is pretty much a UI matter, IMO.

For example, in this case, there should be a radio button or check box
to mark that you want to search only for Products (Software Releases).
I've asked for this before. Perhaps the CMF-ization of zope.org will
resolve that.
