This issue has been partially improved in the overnight update, but
inconsistently.

As some examples of the broader pattern I'm talking about here, searching for:
- "screen" now brings up a plausible list of options, including screenshot, 
universal access, displays, etc.

- "contrast" brings up Universal Access. All good.

- "cursor" brings up no result, despite also being an option under Universal 
Access.
- "sharing" brings up "sharing - control what you want to share with others", 
but does not bring up "desktop sharing".
- "banner" brings up no result, even though "banner designer" is an option 
under Notifications > Applications.

Title:
  Searching within Gnome Settings only works for top-level menu entries

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  (As seen in the latest daily build of 32bit Ubuntu Budgie)

  See attached screenshot. Searching within settings is currently not
  very useful / intuitive, as it only finds results at the level of top-
  level menu entries / categories, but not the items within them.

  As an example, searching for "uni" brings up Universal Access, but the
  same search tool produces nothing when searching for items within the
  Universal Access category (e.g. "contrast", "screen", "cursor", etc).

  Thanks,
  Ken.
