I don't think either the current way is useful, nor the proposed additional 
search method.  

I have no specific objection to the alternative being implemented for symbols 
as a non default option. For documents, quite frankly if anyone has so many 
documents open that they need that, I think they need to re-evaluate their 
workflow :)

But neither is very useful when looking for a symbol or file that exists many 
times, such as a member like "length()" that exists on many classes or a file 
that exists in several directories.  And those cases are the times I am more 
likely to actually want to search in the sidebar.  Simple cases I can handle 
without.
