How exactly is the search field in the inspector supposed to function? What does it look for if it opts out of searching for a unique identifier string in a mess of text files that is a website?

It is supposed to search for tags and not for content (i.e. behaves as querySelectorAll()). You can add a space to select multiple tags to use a more specific selector (you will see a pop-up with choices)
