Search dialog improvement

1.
Let we have some search templates saved. It would be nice, if they could be loaded using there names as aliases from the main search string (preceded by some symbol, which is not allowed for filenames and means "this is a search template alias").
Example:
Search for: >>Executables
This equals to 3 user's actions
a) change tab to load/save
b) choose search template(saved search) "Executables"
c) press "load""
2.
Allow to input of the search depth in the main search string for example so:
Search for: <2>*muster*.txt
This stands for "search *muster*.txt 2 levels down"
or
Search for: <0>*muster*.txt
That stands for "search *muster*.txt only in the current directory".
At this way an advanced user could save many mouseclicks or keys pressed.
