Why cant Ebay allow a natural language query such as"What is the lowest price of a Scooba currently being bidded on?"Checkboxes: Accepts paypal, Ships to Non us locations, etc.?

Why SEARCH must only be based on KEYWORD? Whycant Ebay extend it to DIMENSIONS or DOODLES? Show me all womens dresses that are SHAPED like this one?

How about subscribing to your favorite category of items and getting emailed with the lowest priced items (10 items in an email a day)
