wish – create a message lens

[Thibaut Brandscheid]

The Dash is all about searching and one thing that could be super neat would be the possibility to search for a conversation or conversation content (text, image, url, mail attachment...).

Two scopes come to my mind:
- a mail scope linked with Thunderbird or the Gmail webapp
- an Empathy scope that searches past conversations

This way it would be super easy to find information lost in the big black mail hole or in a month old IM conversation without the need to open the different applications and going through a bunch of menus.
