It would be nice that Nautilus has an option for searching into file contents using tracker.

The current restriction made by Nautilus on file names does not make much sense when tracker has all the search capabilities.

Based on this discussion on the tracker mailing list:

This was implemented. Nautilus now offers full text search as a search option, based on tracker.
