            Bug ID: 148464
           Summary: Ability to pick-and-choose where to search
           Product: LibreOffice

There are different categories of content in a document; and while one could
nitpick about exactly what those are, we can look to the Navigator for a list.
We have (in no particular order): 

1. The main body of the document
2. Footnotes
3. Endnotes
4. Headings / paragraphs with an outline level
5. Tables
6. Captions
7. Bookmarks
8. Hyperlinks
(9. Cross-references)
(10. Indices / ToCs )

... and note that not all of these are disjoint, e.g. the main body contains
many of the other categories, heading paragraphs often contain bookmarks etc.

Anyway, when searching for content, I want to be able to indicate, for each of
these categories except perhaps the last two, whether I want it to be searched
or not (and so that content is searched if it falls in at least one category
I've requested, so that the overlap between categories is not painful).

At the very least I would like to be able to choose just one of these
categories, which would not be sufficient but would save me from doing a huge
amount of work sifting through results.

The specific case of comments is the subject of bug 148463; it's a bit
different since there's already some UI regarding whether or not to search
comments.
