[Bug 1514967] [NEW] Search Filter Text-box for Each Tab

 

Public bug reported:

The audacious UI could really benefit from a search-filter text box,
where each tab has its own small text box near the top, that when you
type into that box it automatically filter/removes all rows that do not
contain the series of characters you're typing. What I'm proposing is
not a "column search", but a "row search" that is case and punctuation
insensitive.

This feature would allow users to quickly locate a song in a long
playlist, by simply typing any portion of its title (and also filter the
playlist to one artist by simply typing a portion of their name). No
button should be required: as the user types, each key press fires an
event that re-filters the playlist according to what has been typed so
far. Some songs could likely be located by typing a few as 3 characters
before the entire playlist has been filtered down to that particular
song.
