It's what Windows search could have been. I don't know what kind of black magic they've got under the hood there but I think it's really just indexing and watching the file system for changes so that it can update the index in real time. This obviously doesn't work for a network resources that change frequently but still, it's very nice when you don't know where the hell anything is.
