Search is not currently Search, it is Jump To. Merge with CMD+K, and replace with a true Search Functionality

Explain the problem as you see it

Currently the Search Bar acts as a "Jump To" menu, not a true Search. I expect the Search Bar to Search and Filter my graph (based on where I am in the node structure) and show only nodes containing that text. Currently, it shows the most likely node I want to jump to, and allows me to hit enter to jump to that node. This is not Search, it is Jump To. There is no way to see a structured view of where information lives in the graph without creating a search node (and even then, you can't easily see the relationship hierarchy).

See example from Workflowy. The search bar filters the tree from the currently visible node:

The Jump To menu in Workflowy, accessible via CMD+K is more akin to how Tana's Search function curreCntly works. It filters the node list and allows me to jump it.

Why is this a problem for you?

Context is everything. I want to see the entire tree of where the text is living in my graph when I search for something. There's no way to do this in Tana right now. It means I can't have the same experience of being able to see/understand where ideas live in context in an easy way at a glance. And I can't quickly search down the tree I'm in to find a specific word or piece of context by filtering the view I'm in to show me only that thing. I have to rely on something like expanding every node and using the browser's built in Find command, which is clunky.

Suggest a solution

Move the current functionality of Search into the CMD+K menu as a "Jump To" command and allow a keyboard shortcut for it, ie: CMD+J. Add the functionality to dynamically filter the view of the graph to see where the search terms are in context.
