How to use Ctrl+F functionality in the Workspace editor?

I have a large structure which I am viewing in the workspace with hundreds of fields. I need to search for a specific token "runner" in the fields, but obviously I can't read through it manually. Why can't I ctrl+F in the workspace? "whos" won't work because it only looks at the variable names. I need to parse the contents of the fields too. What should I do?

Can you not do it in code instead, using strcmp on whichever field you expect "runner" to appear in?
Even if Ctrl+F did work in the Workspace editor you could only really expect it to find a variable named "runner", not search inside objects, structs and whatever else is in the workspace, to any depth, and find results.
