Playlist Search UI element?

I discovered foobar2000 two days ago and I think it's absolutely incredible. I'm truly grateful for such a fantastic piece of software. Whilst configuring the UI, the need arose for a way to search within playlists and it turns out foobar2000 already has this feature built in, although it is somewhat hidden (hold shift while clicking the View toolbar menu, then click Playlist Search). I notice Playlist Search cannot be added as a UI element, and I was wondering if this is something that might be implemented in the future? Luckily, it can be mapped to a keyboard shortcut, which I have done.

A component named SimPlaylist includes a playlist search UI element but the styling is a bit different from the default foobar2000 UI and there are a couple of UI graphic bugs. Seeing as foobar2000 already has a built-in Playlist Search facility that works as expected, I'd much rather use that than a component.

If you mean searching within the current playlist, you can use:

I want to filter within the active playlist.
And you can do this with the proposed component. Just read the documentation.

Cool I'll look at that. Thanks!
