Search should "just work" #445
Description
Whenever I'm looking for a certain artist in the loaded music folder I just type the artist name in the search box and get no results back. Turns out search only looks in file names, which in my case is not helpful at all since I have lots of filenames like Track 01.flac.
The UI also makes it a bit confusing, since the filename is the smallest part of each file element and it's in a grey font, so not easy to see. I would expect search to look in the more visible parts of the file elements that are being shown on screen. It seems the existence of files is being abstracted away, which is fine, but then search isn't matching this reality.
I know advanced search exists, but it's clunky to use, and I can't think of any situation where looking at the filename alone will be preferable to just looking at all the available metadata fields, but this is just my opinion, so looking forward to getting some more feedback.
Proposal
Search should search in all metadata fields, or at least the main ones (artist, album, title), giving preference to these fields first, and only then filenames.
