I also see this as a serious bug - the only way to search for some
hidden files (which can be important, such as .conf files) is through a
terminal.

Title:
  Search not showing hidden files

Status in Nautilus:
  New
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  In Nautilus, I had "show hidden files (and folders)" checked in the
  view menu, yet when I click the search button and search for
  something, it does not see the hidden files or folders.  This is
  annoying because I just want to filter down the exceptionally large
  home folder (in this case, I have a .wine-* folder for each distinct
  Windows app and want a quick way to manage those folders, but I can't
  search on .wine and there is no filter mode in Nautilus)
