Better use for the project filter/search

In AE, I think the filter/search in the Project panel can be improved in this way:

When selecting an item while a filter is active, it would be helpfull when this is kept selected when the filter is cleared.

This is especially needed, when the found item is deep in the hierarchy. Clearing the filter wil hide it again.

I think the hieararchy should be unfold to show the found item.
