Uniform Type Identifiers have too many item

I've been thinking about this for a while. Frankly, I think the main issue blocking me from doing it has been space (in the UI). I'll see what I can do.

Just needed this.

I think of it as more a filter than a search, as you enter text in the field (placement idea shown in red) matches are shown in the list below.

Workaround: you can click in the list, type some text, and the selection will move to the first matching line.

I was thinking about this as well. If this is implemented, then search results should both match the UTI name as well as the extension. For example, typing csv would include public.comma-separated-values-text in the results.
