search across all messages, all conversations

It would be nice to be able to search for text in any message in any conversation.

Should be possible. Maybe with a command like :/search str here. It can filter messages in the chat window, and the contacts in the contacts window, similarly to how the in-chat / search looks now. Incremental search as-you-type would be computationally expensive for search in all chats, though.

For the meantime, grep SMTH ~/.local/share/scli/history always works, is fast and flexible :)
