Inventory search engine?

This sounds like a bit much I know, but I've been waiting 6 long years for SOE to put this in, but they're slacking. Is it possible to mod one into the UI? most of my characters have 6 40+ slot bags, and when you just used a quest item, got a hole somewhere in the middle bags then an item that you need to use for a quest drops into that hole, it can be a real pain to find that item.. especially when you dont even know what it looks like >,< . Mind you that was just an example, I know I could delete the quest in most cases, fill the empty slot and reget the quest, placing that item where I can see it, but I am too often losing items..

So if anyone could mod this in or take a shot at it, that'd be awesome, I'm sure that many other packrats and unorganized folk would love you :P

Unfortunately this is not possible for us to do in UI mods.

Perhaps next expansion, the UI might have something in store for you.

So LUA is coming or is that blind speculation?

I would venture a guess that
A) NDA prevents him from being more specific
B) SOE could implement inventory searching without LUA if they chose to

so its possible that it is neither blind speculation nor LUA dependent
