Description Pawel Piech CLA 2009-12-14 12:00:54 EST 
Currently the find feature in the variables only searches through elements that are currently expanded by the user in the view.  The find feature would be much more powerful if all of the elements in the hierarchy would be searched.  The main challenge to this feature is the fact that the hierarchy could be very deep (maybe even infinite), and it could be expensive to retrieve.

See bug 297526 for related discussion.
