Search function in menu and on hotkey
The search function should not only be available in the toolbar, but also in the "Edit" menu of the main window, as is good practice.
It would be good if that menu entry would be associated with a hotkey like Ctrl-F.

The only way this makes sense to me is if it brought up a search dialog, and to make that worthwhile it should have extra functions.
I imagine a search that included filter parameters, so it would temporarily filter or unfilter things to show the search results. Users could choose whether they are searching only active or only incomplete items etc. or search items that have certain dates only in a particular range.
Thus, such a search would actually be an adequate work-around for my request here:
