I think it would be really cool if you could search over all decks with the Ankiweb search.

Is there a way for me to help you to get this done?

The way shared decks are currently handled does not make this practical, sorry.

OK. This will mean I will leave as soon as I found a better alternative.

The better alternative is Anki Desktop. But if you have to use Ankiweb, you could just add a common parent deck.
