currently Ctrl-F has a classic search function which jumps to the browser

as a developer I have some nice experiences where we have some extend search possibilities (Jetbrains CTRL+SHIFT+F)

this functionality makes it possible to search in different layers i can think of the following

1) application functions, i would expect them to be +/- 100% the same with the functions which are available through menu's and the shortcuts => this would majorly enhance the usage of more functions available in studio one

e.g. search term : pattern
would give as a result :
- change instrument part to pattern (shortcut)
- change pattern to instrument part (shortcut)
- ....

2) track / part / mix elements

e.g. search term: voice
would give as a result:
- track : voice choir
- track : voice choir \ lane 1
- part : voice choir \ lane 1 \ voice choir(1)
- effect : voice reverb
- mixer : voice
....

3) search across all elements in the browser (which are probably already indexed in a way)
e.g. search term: paino
would give as a result:
- instrument - preset : grand piano > (option to listen/play)
- effect - preset : grand piano concert > (option to listen/play)
- loop : piano-120BPM > (option to listen/play)
