I have a giant folder with thousands of files and thousands of keywords. If I want to find everything tagged with a keyword, I have two options: I can use the Find function, or I can filter by keyword.

The problem with the Find function is that it's slow. It can take a couple minutes to show everything tagged with that keyword, and then when I'm done and want to show everything from the original folder again, I have to wait for the original folder to reload.

The Filter by Keyword function is much faster. All I have to do is click the keyword and I can immediately see everything tagged with the keyword! But when I filter by keyword, it shows me a list of EVERY keyword alphabetically. I might have hundreds if not thousands of keywords, and there is no way to search through them or see them in their organized folders and subfolders. It simply shows all keywords alphabetically with no regard for their hierarchal structure. There is also no search function. This means if I want to filter by keyword, I have to scroll until I find the correct keyword, which itself can take a minute or two.

What I would like is to be able to have the speed of filtering by keyword, combined with the ease of finding a keyword that the keyword panel has. I am not sure what the best way to implement this is, but it seems to me like there are two possible options:

1) Add a filter by keyword function to the Keyword panel.
2) In the Filter panel, when filtering by keyword, show keywords in their hierarchical structure instead of a flat list and/or allow searching for a keyword.

Since I primarily use Bridge to search a single large folder, this would save me literal hours.
