Go To File with directory in NetBeans

The "Go to File" dialog is handy (Alt-Shift-o), but my project has a hundred files called index.phtml. Is there any way to include the directory? Say, search for docs/index.phtml?

Or do I just have to fix/wait for https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=222697?

I'm using NetBeans PHP 7.3.

No, only file names can be searched for.

When looking at the code of the Jump To module, you can notice that a org.netbeans.modules.parsing.spi.indexing.CustomIndexerFactory gets registered which only keeps record of file names including their extension. So currently there is no way to to search for files with a path specified.

However, I think it shouldn't be too difficult to change the indexer of the Jump To module to not omit the path, I'd worry about the performance though.
