Have you tried '*foo' feature? Reducing the size of the tree might work better for you.

Ooooh, very nice. I wondered what on earth you were talking about until I tried it. For anyone else reading - if you put * in front of your search term it displays the treeview collapsed with just the items matching that term within it (effectively a filter). That will do the job just as well, thanks!

Hmmm... not for me. It just shows the average rating?

How about a button just to the right of the Find? You already have a very large text area for typing Find text, hard to believe people will type expressions long enough to fill that. I would much prefer a button over a right click - less clicks for a start and as you say more discoverable. Just a teeny one the size of Advanced Search as a quick way to collapse the tree and clear the find text...
