I'm not sure. I haven't had time to look at the beagle integration patch
from the nautilus-search branch, but thats a form of search too that has
to be taken into account. I think with the new typeahead search model
we're already pretty close to something like your patch. Maybe if we
make that not only match on the beginning of the file it would be useful
enough for find-in-directory, while larger searches could be done with
the nautilus-search stuff.

Anyway, I don't want to comment too much before I've taken a better look
at the nautilus-search branch. (Which I hope to do soon.)
