Chrome extension: Item Search

I found myself today wanting to search for all my items of a specific rarity. I don't know how feasible such functionality would be, but is it possible to have the search also check item/quality descriptions? I assume that would be more resource-intensive, so a way to toggle it on and off would make sense as well. Located in the dropdown menu from the expansion icon perhaps, or as a checkbox toggle beside each individual search bar. (Besides the scrapbook and mantlepiece ones.)

Great idea! That's definitely doable and shouldn't substantially affect performance. I've published an update (v. 1.4.0) that allows you to choose between title-only and full-text searching. For the moment, I've implemented it as a single option in the extension's dropdown that affects all search fields. It's switched off by default (so as not to disturb anyone who isn't interested in the functionality):

I'll get around to making this an option you can select for each of the different search fields at some point down the line, once I'm confident that the new version is working OK. For the moment, let me know if you have any problems (or other feedback, of course).
As an aside, being able to search through the full description actually makes the Outfits search field slightly more useful — for example, here I am searching for stat-reduction gear so that I can fail a Persuasive check (note the minus sign in 'persuasive-'):

I haven't found any issues with searching descriptions. Finding equipment with specific bonuses or penalties is really useful, good thinking! The only issue I'd noticed was that switching from regular outfits to the extended inventory cleared the search bar, but that's rarely relevant.
