To search I tend to create a tag or use the default TreeView search feature which kinda works for me and in my work process i live perfectly ok with it.
There's also the fact that opting for the GtkTreeView as an implementation for the solution, it limited a bit as I'm already using filtering capabilities of that same tree view. Adding a sorted model in conjunction with the filters changes the resulting behavior. At the same time it can be considered as a real time tag.
This will also change as we move away from the GtkTreeView.
Let's see what can be done here.
Thank you for the feeback.
Is it possible that searching currently isn't supported? The Ctrl-F shortcut seems to trigger the bottom panel rather than an actual search bar. After taking the application for a spin with a 4 MB text file, I found myself looking for a way to 'jump to the first hit' and search for something, but I couldn't immediately find any.
Tangentially related to #53 as it is also an idea to improve discoverability of hits.
