I've been using it but you have to type from the start of the filename, it doesn't match substrings. Also the symbol list filter is really good at just showing the matching items and hiding the uninteresting stuff, whereas with default tree search you have to press up and down and there doesn't seem to even be indication of whether there are any other matches besides the selected one (when the other matches are off screen). Also it's not easy to discover the feature (the tree has to have focus, not the Documents tab).

For the file tree its the GTK built-in search IIUC, and thats how it works, symbols search has had a makeover courtesy of @techee per #3055, so presumably "somebody" could take that code and use it to improve filenames?
