Add search in Options menus

In Eclipse there is possibility to search for given option by name in the options menus. It will be very useful if there is a similar thing in Visual Studio options menus because its hard to find an option if you are not sure in which category it is.

        Not sure why this is in the Ultimate Edition category - it would be useful for all versions - but it's worth pointing out something approaching this has been added for VS11. The Quick Launch field in the menu bar searches the Options dialogue. Unfortunately it only searches the option page tree on the left, not the names of the options within each page, but it does apparently also search a set of keywords exposed by each page. Hopefully the maintainers of each page have added enough keywords to that list to enable most options to be found this way...
