"Search" in multi-level boards breaks context and loses subitems

When searching in multi-level boards, the results only show the specific item or subitem that matches the search - without its related subitems.

This completely breaks the context.

If I then want to see the subitems of that result (whether it’s a parent item or a subitem), I have to manually scroll and find it in the board - which defeats the entire purpose of search.

Search should help me locate information quickly, but in its current state it:

  • Disconnects items from their hierarchy

  • Removes critical context

  • Forces manual re-searching

Result:
The search becomes almost useless in multi-level boards.

Request:
Search results should preserve context - meaning:

  • Show items together with their subitems

  • Or at least allow expanding to view the full hierarchy directly from the result
