I do the same and have often wished there was a hot-key to jump to the
CoA, e.g. Ctrl-1. Then I could do Ctrl-1 Ctrl-f, but being able to do
it from the Find window would be better. It would be nice if selecting
the option to search across all accounts could be bound to ctrl-f when
in the Find window, so to search across all accounts from any register
you would do ctrl-f ctrl-f.

An option to search all transaction accounts without leaving the current account register would be very nice.
