I suggested this last year in December, but it has been almost a year now, and I decided to alliterate more on this idea, now adding a search button to the world select screen would be handy for people like me who have tonnes of worlds, sometimes it will take me 10-20 minutes to find an old file or find the map I just downloaded, I know the name but I have so many files that scrolling through them is a pain, now to be fair I do have WAY too many files and really should delete some of my older less useful files, I should also have more than one .Minecraft folder to better organize my files, but in my defense I wouldn't need to do either of those things if there was a simple search button.
So really this is a feature that seems like it would be simple to implement and would have no cons, but I want to know would it help other people or is it just me? if it had cons in your opinion what would they be? also I am in no way a game developer but this seems like it would be easy to add to Minecraft to me, but if you are someone who knows better can you tell me if it would actually be easy? or is it really difficult to add something like this and I'm just ignorant.

Well, I'm not an expert in Java, but I'm pretty sure this could be done easily. I don't think they'd add this because you could just go to the worlds folder and take out the one's you aren't using (which has a search function and organizes things in alphabetical order).

That's true, I just wish there was a way to do this without having to move files around, but that will be what I do if they don't add this, thanks for the idea!
EDIT: Well thinking about this, I realized something, it would still work but I do often change my world's names, and that means the world name and the file name are different, so I wouldn't be able to find all my files names through that idea, but it would still work for the most part.
