WANTED: A Search Across Playliists Showing Source Playlist For Each Result

Unless I'm mistaken, there still isn't a Foobar search function (3rd party or otherwise) that will search across all loaded playlists AND include the name of the source playlist for each found result.  If anybody knows of a way to do this, please let me know!

foo_dbsearch can do this, it shows playlist name and number in status bar by default, you can do it on per track basis using %playlist_name%, /%playlist_number% in the  title formatting of the component settings.

Wow, how did I miss this!  Just tried it.  How do you go to a found track in the result list - ie. go to where it is in the respective playlist?  I don't see menu-item for that nor a way to configure the default action for that.  And when playing the track, double-clicking on the status bar doesn't take me to the playlist location either.

Yes, these don't work indeed.
