Is it possible to override the TreeViewer Find action? I have a
TreeViewer and I want to find specific elements in the tree but not by
the element display label.
For example, my objects in the tree viewer are from my database model
and I want to find (an) object by an attribute of the object. This
object attribute is not part of the name displayed in the tree.
Sooo, if someone hit Ctrl-F, a dialog would popup allowing me to control
the 'find' action.
Thanks!

You might also want to take a look at FilteredTree.
