Description
Currently, if you search open tabs using shift-T, the window will show only ten results, in an apparently arbitrary order, with no ability to access any results beyond that. If you don't have any search terms to narrow it further, you therefore can't search through a result set with more than ten tabs in it.
It would be good to be able to show all open tabs that match a given search.

Research direction
Start by tracing the Vomnibar tab-search flow opened with shift-T and locate where results are limited to ten. Verify the behavior with more than ten matching open tabs; done means all matching tabs can be accessed in the result set.
