Is top search box Sensei only or does it also look at keywords

When I type something in the search box (top center on desktop app) does the search only use sensei to select images or is it also looking at keywords associated with images?

For example, if I have an image of a bus but it has the keyword "Mountain" for some reason, will typing "mountain" in the search box select that image?

    Yes, it searches basically all of the information that you can see in LRCC, so it would include filenames, locations, etc. too

    It appears to do that. I think they said it in one of the keynote videos that it also searches keywords and titles/captions on your images.

    No wonder I'm' getting totally irrelevant images.  I use Keywords in Classic for many things in addition to subject.  For example I have a keyword for each trip I took.  So, one trip was "Oregon-Washington-Trip".  I then looked for images of "Oregon" and got all the washington ones as well..

    Big problem as we're talking hundreds if not a thousand examples of such keywords.
