      When users search in the treeview of a page, the search automatically restricts to the children of the root page. It does this by pre-pending something like "ancestorIds:425988 AND" to the search.

      However for most users, they would have no idea what ancestorIds means, or even what that number means.

      We should change this to plain English, example "ChildPageOf:[Page Name]" or if the page name is too long "ChildPageOf:PageID=[ID]".
