Adding a toggle for the internal search in admin area #1

Looks like an excellent solution. Does this filter backend searches as well? I find that searching for blocks can be quite useful there. Might be worth adding an is_admin()... Source: Roy Tanck (@roytanck) on Twitter

To allow searching for blocks as well, we could add a toggle to enable/disable searching for block comments.

It looks like all those tutorials are building a complete new screen options area for your own admin page. Extending the screen options for existing admin pages seems not covered well in documentation.

As you can always disable the plugin and get the same feature and screen options are meant for layout and not so much for features, I will close this.
