Search through highlights

I use my highlights as a way of taking notes on books in my library.

I cannot find any way to search through the highlights to find a particular word of phrase. In the Notes tools, if I search, it only find notes, not highlights. I am not sure why the search is limited to notes, given that highlights are put in the note taking system as a special type of note.

Is there a way to search highlights within the note tool? I know I can do this with the Search tool, by limiting my search in the book to highlighting pens. But what if I want to search all of my notes in all of my books or certain books I have selected with a filter in the Notes tool?

A flexible search capability is critical for a note taking system and is especially important for a large research project, such as writing a book or dissertation.
