currently the “search this topic” option works great, as you can find anyone or any known post simply inside long discussions.

meanwhile the **UI and the accessibility** of the search result may be much better if the “search this topic” changes to a filter:

_current search result:_

_possible search result if it behave like a filter; after you searched “ginger”- term in this topic:_

In the filter-like “search this topic” you will be able to read all the posts that fit into your search simultaneously, without the need to lots of clicks and re-search’s.
