Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
By now if you try to search anything the search is done on the active folder, and if you have like 60 folder ... its anoying to make the same search 60 times.
I know you can search with the nc global search but with nc global search you cant do it by from or to address or with date range.
Describe the solution you'd like
a check box to search on all folders will be great

Research direction
Start by tracing how the current search is limited to the active folder and how Nextcloud global search handles filtering. Define the checkbox behavior for searching all folders while preserving from, to, and date-range filters, then verify that results and folder scope match the requested behavior.
