Hello dear CompizConfig Developers in this list, if there are any.. are
there any?

A great thank you for how you did the search filter in CompizConfig Settings
Manager, that's the kind of filter that makes sense.
The gtkfilechooser module was reinvented in Sezen, still its legacy or
better to say "aging" version deserves some love i say!

let'S give the quick search filter another look real quick here:

in CompizConfig Settings Manager, our main control interface to the window
manager software control, the search filter for text elements is openly
visible, affording itself to the user:
There are too many controls to fit into one page, so a UI object should
provide for a way to instantly focus initially invisible objects.
A scrollbar doesn't give instant access to an object, as a visually
optimized list or gallery would for example do.

¹ check the attached screener for visual reference!
² how would this look on all scrollable pages in 10.10 (pages or dialogs,
unable to display all of their content at once automagically) ?

greetings..
