Find Usages for private variable searches outside class

I just tried out the latest EA build 2118 and noticed that when you do a "Find Usages" for a private class variable, the progress window shows it searching everywhere and not just inside the class, which makes it slower.

Not searches but builds search indicies for libraries etc. Only done first time when searching.

Could it please not do that when looking for a private (or package for that matter) member? Or at least constrain the indexing to
the scope needed?

Actually, I'd find it quite uesful if it did search outside the surrounding class, especially in strings. I use reflection a lot, both for database access and for the odd test.
