Find Files: add Names for search sessions

Post by *DrShark »

To make it easier to distinguish results of searches in Find Files, I suggest to add a new field to set a name of current search, I think the best place for it is a General tab of Find Files window.
It may be used as:
1) an addition to a Find Files window title, so the title will look like:
Find Files - <search session name>
2) an additional name to a tab with search results, so it will look like:
Search result: <search session name>
3) if user is going to save a search template (Load/Save tab of Find Files) and the search name has been entered, this name may be suggested as a Template name. Also if user loads a template, the Template name may be used as a search session name (at least if user didn't put another session name before loading a template.)

Maybe TC can also use this session name as a default value for a name in Save File dialog which appears if to use cm_SaveSelectionToFile? or cm_SaveDetailsToFile? commands on search results (or as a more general separate suggestion: to use a name of current tab as a default name for that Save File dialog.)
