I don't think I knew about that.  That seems like something you could
easily just make a firefox bookmark do.  I do something similar to
quickly get to bug reports at work.

Create a shortcut like:

http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?arch=x86&grep=%s

save it with a keyword like "cygpackage" and you should be able to type:

cygpackage binutils

to search for junk.
