Description
Framework Version: 2.8.7
Python: 2.7
Operating System: Win 7 Enterprise
Using RIDE 1.3 (although I saw this issue on 1.4b3 as well)
I've found that when I use the 'Search Keywords', it brings back all keywords, no matter what suite or folder I've opened. It would be really nice if it only brought back keywords contained in the context of the suite or the folder that I have opened at a particular time.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Search Keywords behavior in RIDE 1.3 or 1.4b3 with a suite or folder open, checking whether results include keywords outside that context. Trace the Search Keywords entry point and identify how the open suite or folder is represented. Done means search results are limited to keywords contained in the currently open context, with coverage for both suites and folders.
