Comment (by nickjbedford):

 I also agree that the **Add menu items > Pages** search and **View All**
 tabs become hard to use with a large page structure.

 For example, we have pages with specific titles but entering the exact
 title in the "Search" query returns anything ''**but**'' the page with the
 matching name, instead returning results at random that contain the word.
 Trying to find it in the **View All** tab requires endless scrolling and
 page turns.

 I have to resort to adding **Custom Links** that to the menu that don't
 store the "Original" page reference, which I'd prefer not to do.
