I got some idea today and I wonder if it makes sense.

What about search function cooperating with Assist++ parsed data, like you would enter "\assignment x" (eventually with whole word flag), and from source

void foo( int & x )
{
  int b = x * 10;
  x = b - x;
}

it would find only the line "x = " and ignore those x in function parameters and calculation.

Mirek, after parser refactoring, would you store some data similar to this, so you can tell whether some piece of source is assignment / usage / class definition / inheritance definition / etc..?
And if yes, does anyone think such extended search would be practical and good to use?
(*I* can imagine to use it rarely, so I would need easy way to see what options I can use (probably droplist after "\" character, because I would not remember all the options)
