Nodes within Nodes should appear in search
Short description of error When searching for a Node that is only available within another Node it should appear in the search.
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
For example, if I need to use the Ceil Node when I search for Ceil it doesn't appear. I have to know that Ceil is within the Math node and search for Math and then change it to Ceil. Ideally If I search for Ceil the Math node will be presented within the search menu. Even better would be if I search for Ceil it would show me something like Math > Ceil and clicking it would automatically add the Math Node set to Ceil.
This would be especially useful for people following tutorails or screenshots of a node group because currently it is impossible to find something like the Ceil Node if you don't know its actually a Math Node set to Ceil.

It already does it in the searchbar we get when you drag'n'drop a noodle in empty space, it would be great if it worked in regular search too.
I always type "mult" or "add" first only to correct later. A habit from other apps I suppose. There are only 3 possibilities: Math, Vector math and Mix that can show.
There is no "Ceil Node". There is a Math node, that uses Ceil as the function. The Vector Math node also uses Ceil as a function; Math, Vector Math, and Mix all use Add as a function.
So even just searching for Ceil or Add would present multiple options; you would still need to know which one was to be used, based on learning the software.
Showing multiple options would be much better than showing none though. The options could be presented as Math > Ceil, and Vector Math > Ceil. same with Math > Add, Mix > Add
