Description

Project outline is a great tool to find related source files, however it lacks search by target. When working with a large project, navigating gigantic tree of directories to find a necessary project becomes unfeasible. Are there any plans to add a search bar for this window or any other way to see a specific target?

Research direction

Locate the Project Outline implementation and inspect how its existing project tree is populated and rendered. Check whether any current filtering or target-selection entry points can support this request. Done means a user can quickly find and view a specific target without navigating the full directory tree.
