I think we do. They are objects just like any others.

Understandable. I face the same issues from time to time.

Works with many objects' type, but doesn't work for FKey. I suppose this
is because your search the name of the fkey in the tree but fkey are
displayed in a special way.

Would be good.
Your patch, at least from a user point of view (meaning I didn't check
the code), seems good. I found two issues:
* not able to find a fkey (see above)
* really bad UI (I see the combobox only partly, and the dialog is not
resizable... the latter is no big deal, I can take care of that
afterwards, but the first one makes it not commitable).

See patch attached for linux compatibility. Not really a hard work.
