[2.8] Highlight objects in 3d view as visual representation of search

There could be an option to highlight (or gray-out rest) outliner's search results in 3d viewport.

Why? Currently you have to select objects to find in viewport corresponding object in outliner. With this functionality it would be easier to find needed object without clicking through all results.

Also there could be alternative option to highlight object in viewport while mouseover (with shift/ctrl/alt) in outliner.
