User level: Beginners

Description

It would be great if we could search for entries.

In v2.3.x, the only search you can do is to filter by tag or password strength.
When you have more than 100 entries in your vault, even if they are well tagged, it’s not easy to find the entry you are looking for.

A search by url/email/username would be great.

Benefit / value

We could find quickly the entry that we need.

Risk / caveats

Since, among other fields, url/email/username are stored encrypted, you (your browser) would always have to decrypt all credentials locally for the search. Don't think that this is useful or performant.
@vnivuahc But you can also search for the label :)

maybe for that purpose, passman could build a in memory cache

e.g. the searchbox has a additional checkbox (below regex) and in the moment you click this checkbox, a background job is started which is building this in memory cache. This could be visualized behind the checkbox with a loading gear and a small hint message.

in my scenario, I have ~400 different passwords and I don't remember sometime exactly on the keyword. For that reason I put a lot of keywords in the note field or as additional tags.

It would also be useful to include the tags in the search. Maybe with an additional checkbox too.

btw. putting all keywords from note fields as tags is also not useful. I have already 20 tags.

and if we have so many additional checkboxes, It would be nice to remember what is selected in the current browser session.
