Is there a "Find" feature for the name of a body/component in my browser tree?

Is there a "Find" feature for the name of a body/component in my browser tree?

I'm talking like, I have 500 pieces of this project, with many parts hidden/unhidden for different situations. But the names are at least something I know I need and can think of them, I just get lost in 20 minutes of just browsing & expanding categories of the prat tree to find the exact thing I need to be revealed.  There's got to be a search function. I can't be the only one who's had to do this for big projects. You can click on objects and find them in the bowser, but there doesn't seem to be a way to find the object by name in the browser itself. Maybe have that as a suggestion in Fusion?

 

 

And before anyone suggests, the Select drop-down doesn't work. You can only find object by Exact name and it must already be revealed. You can't use it to help you unhide an object you need but know the name of.

This is a massive oversight , 

If i have an object non visible and i know its name, but not where it is in the various trees, then im stuck with opening each one and scrolling through several thousand bodies to look for it. 

 

Thats about as inefficient as my modelling that causes the several thousand bodies.
