Hide bins (flatten folder structure) in search results

Hey all,

 

I would love the ability to, when searching a project in the project panel (using the "filter bin content" field - sometimes called the Find Box in the project window) hide all bins (flatten the folder structure) in the search results. Maybe as a toggle button right next to the filter bin content field?

 

Use case

We have a relatively large project within our production that we keep frequently used sound effects and music in. And there are a bunch of folders and subfolders to keep things organized. This means that when we want to search the project, even if there is only one item matching the search query, we have to scroll through a lot of listed bins that don't contain any relevant results.

 

This would be sort of similar in function to the way that the search bins only show relevant items - but I don't want to create a search bin every time to find a specific item (and the create search bin feature also isn't available when the project is locked).

 

Hopefully other people would find this useful!

EDIT: Or just hide bins that don't have results within them.
