Hi Erlend,
Such a search is implemented in the word completion plugin, except it searches 
the completion rather than the word.

Before the new dialogs, the functionality was not tied to th ui, and could be 
used for example in the commandline, and I think that it should be so. It 
can't be hard to untie them :)
