Table searching in database window - narrow results instead of highlighting

Greetings:

When searching in the database window you just start typing and it will highlight all tables with that word in it all the while still showing all the non selected tables.  Then you arrow through the results.

The problem for me is that we have a lot of tables and some have common words in them such as `contract`. So if I am not sure what the exact name is I have to arrow thorough many results 

Is it possible that there is an option to choose to narrow the table list as you type.

Am I missing something?

I have checked all documentation that I can find. Other db tools (like sql pro) work this way and it quite effective.

 

Thank you in advance

Thanks.  That issue is 3 years old.

It is unfortunate that this is such a low priority. 

It seems that almost every other search window in PhpStorm will operate as 'narrowed searching' and feels quick and natural.

I have been using Jetbrains tools since Intellij v1. This is the first time I ran across a function that seems unfinished. I wish it was the case that our legacy schemas did not have so many table but I cannot change that.  Many developers at our shop use PhpStorm along with SqlPro for that exact reason.  SqlPro feels lightweight and quick to search however lacks other features that the DB module uses.

Anyway I will keep wishing

Thanks
