My opinion:

- No need for searching DRC markers. Whole lower part should be removed.

- If "wrap search" continues from the first after reaching last occurance, then it is not that good. I must notice that I cycled through all the components. I push a button to start again. Or wrap around is fine, if a message panel with a single default "OK" button appears, or a notification sound heard. It is important to realize when search is done.

API search functions usually have a FindFirst and FindNext function: this FindFirst should be assigned directly to a button "Search again".

"Words" is very important as searching for "R1" would find "R11", R"12" etc otherwise.

"Match case" is not usable for me, but someone may distinguish between small and capital letter names.

- Extra feature: finding objects in topological order. I don't know if it is your goal, but I miss it much.

- Extra feature: maintain a counter of search occurances (E.g. I know from BOM, that there is 30pcs of 10K, so it would be fine to count the advance)
