HI everyone reading pg-admin-support

I'd like to suggest a new feature to improve the usability of pgAdmin.

Some of you might know XCode, the IDE from Apple.
They have a feature called "Open Quickly"
I believe such a feature would also be very helpful in pgAdmin.

Open Quickly brings up a dialog with an input field and a list below.
Upon typing into the input field a set of matching items is displayed in the list.

In Xcode this is used to open files, but in pgAdmin it should be used to navigate to items in the Object Browser.

For example if you type: cust
It should display something likecustomers (Table)customer_name (Column)customer_id (Column)customer_id_pk (FK
Constraint)customer_id_seq(Sequence)customer_view (View) 

and upon selecting an item from the list, it should open up the Object Browser at the respective item.
