[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Fuzzy typeahead search in sidebar (#1466)

[elextr]

I don't think either the current way is useful, nor the proposed additional search method.  

I have no specific objection to the alternative being implemented for symbols as a non default option. For documents, quite frankly if anyone has so many documents open that they need that, I think they need to re-evaluate their workflow :)

But neither is very useful when looking for a symbol or file that exists many times, such as a member like "length()" that exists on many classes or a file that exists in several directories.  And those cases are the times I am more likely to actually want to search in the sidebar.  Simple cases I can handle without.
