--They say that it works correctly in block mode (Alt-R for beginning and ending of block to search).

In case people didn't know, you can use Alt-L to trigger Block select and auto select the entire line.

This allows you to then use Shift- cursor down(or up) and select a bunch of lines like in Stream Select mode.

This might be a useful work-around for those that don't want to select the columns in order to trigger the Restrict Search feature.

When you are done, Alt-U deselects the block.
