I'm just dissapointed in this :

1.Viewing Details of Searched Items
Verifying item quality (whether HQ or NQ) and details regarding materia-crafted items through the Item Search is not currently possible, but we plan to alleviate this some time after patch 1.20b.

With higher quality matts giving significant chances for high quality gear in 1.20, a item quality search has never been more in need.

This "new" market ward feature seems more like a poorly applied band-aid.
