I have searched the existing feature requests, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate request.

The feature
I would like to suggest supporting context and filename search simultaneously in the search bar.
The ranking strategy for fuzzy filename matches might require further discussion, but for exact filename matches, assigning them the highest priority should be reasonable, right?
There are times when I know exactly the name of the file I'm looking for, yet I still have to repeatedly go through the mechanical steps of Open Menu → Switch Search Type → Search.
This process feels a bit frustrating and inefficient.
Would it be possible to streamline this experience by allowing both search types to be performed together?
