Feature request: Being able to search through columns

Current Behavior
- CSV viewer allows searching within rows using
/
- Cannot search through column names (headers)
Desired Behavior
- Extend search functionality to include column headers
Why?
- Improve navigation in large datasets
- Quickly find specific columns
Suggestion
- Use existing
/
search to include headers, or - Add new keybinding for header-only search (e.g.,
?
)
Minimal repro:
id,first_name,last_name,email,occupation,salary
1,John,Doe,john.doe@example.com,Engineer,75000
2,Jane,Smith,jane.smith@example.com,Manager,85000
3,Bob,Johnson,bob.johnson@example.com,Designer,70000
^ Try to search for "email" and you will get 0 match.

I also need this feature because my CSV file has many columns. I prefer searching within headers with the key ?
, which would be faster than searching inside the whole CSV file if the file is large.
