Ah. Sorry. This idea works in conjunction with another I had on a different thread; a slider for useless items and such. Set the slider to 10, and only those items of 11 or more GP in value can even be found. All crates and such with items of 10 GP or less would no longer even be accessible. So, when you do the quick search in conjunction with this, you can be confident that you won't even be able to find empty or junk containers.

The slider could be set to 1-10, or something like that, or off if you want to find everything, to cut down on this kind of thing, and it would be a slider per item tab. Want to still find all books? Book slider off. Want to find potions but not food? Consumables to 5 or 10 or whatever to just cut out food but more important consumables would still be locatable.

Then, a quick search would only have your characters find and pick up those items you are interested in as opposed to finding a ton of stuff you don't care about, and it would speed up the pace of the game with a quick search button.
