[Users] Implementing proper search functionality

I consider 'Quick Search' to be a "proper search functionality". It's
method for displaying results does not quite match what you want, but
OTOH it can do a lot of the stuff which you complain about as being
missing.

For example, Quick Search can do a recursive search through all
folders, if you start at the root folder. In its Extended mode you can
search in complete messages. Folders with matching messages are
indicated.

Did you know about Quick Search's Extended Mode? For some info about
it, see the "5. Quick Search with extended search" section here:
