I've been reading this group for a while and played a bit more with
the Open File by Name feature (the closest to what other editors
provide). While it is definitely not on par with other solutions (Cmd
+T in TextMate, PeepCode, etc.) it could be good enough if:

1. it would use some filters to ignore files and searching

While using it with a versioned project, a search will also look
under .svn or .git folders. This is very annoying as I'd never really
want to look into those files. In case some advanced users would
actually need to access those files, then there could be a checkbox to
disable global filters.

The set of global filters would probably have to include:

- versioning files
- temporary files
- binary/compilation result files

2. in some next version, the open file by name would perform a fuzzy
live search: having feedback when performing an operation is so
present these days, that it looks odd that a desktop application is
not able to provide any feedback until clicking OK.

I hope you'll consider these features for the next versions of
BBEdit.
