Maybe, but I don't think pre-filtering is so easy to implement, with that kind
of pseudo-csv, e.g. difficult to know on where column the searched string is,
or not all the data to eliminate with searched string it's in the same row.

I'm not against, but IMO there are a lot of better things to get developers
attention.
