By included files do you mean text insets?
If so .. I don't believe that a search will find anything in an inset

That's great as long as you use DITA. We use DocBook so FrameMaker XML Author

My guess is Adobe's goal in creating FrameMaker XML Author and pricing
it at $400 is to eliminate the cost savings incentive for structured
FrameMaker users to switch to Oxygen or XMetal instead of adding more
FM seats.
Also, at $400, I doubt if FrameMaker XML Author is going to be able to
