Description

Describe the feature you'd like to request

If you scan many images, you'll end up in many faces (probably). Once you have many faces, some are named and some are not.
Today I searched for a specific person, but it was hard to find. A "search" feature would have helped me.

Describe the solution you'd like

It could be very basic, like a search box on top of all faces to filter what's shown.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Integrate with the global search (or search apps).

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points; begin by locating the faces view and any existing global-search integration in the repository. Clarify whether filtering belongs in the faces view or global search, then define completion as being able to find a named person among the displayed faces and verify the relevant search behavior.
