improved search results

When searching for symbol references, the search box should how snippets of code which reference the symbol for ease of use. (https://grep.app has a fantastic implementation of this)

how do you propose we handle the biggest issue with this -- we don't have access to the source
we would have to decompile the full jar in order to implement this feature, and I'm not sure what a good way to go about that is

Literally just decompile it like you said, on a another thread. The source code isn't going to change much anyways, except for renaming some symbols.

There isn't much optimisations you can do, but remember this is a one-time operation per project. It may take a while initially, but at least we aren't wasting computational power on re-indexing and decompiling the JAR every time you load the project.
