VisualEditor: Reference dialog re-use search form should recognise group names
Closed, InvalidPublicFeature

Description

References can be grouped; it would be good if the references dialog's search form recognised group names, and filtered down to only the contents of that group, as well as recognising elements of the actual ref.

I'm not sure what's missing here. The group name always was searchable ever since the code was added in June 2013. I just tested it and it works with and without Citoid. Maybe the code was not deployed when this ticket was written?
