Details:

Hi Flashcode,

As of this writing, I have 88 buffers open.  It gets very hard after a while
to find the channel/msg buffer number of a window you want with this many
buffers kicking around.b

For example, if #happytimes is buried at around 43 of 88 buffers, it takes a
long time for my eyes to scan for it, especially if you're using a laptop and
the screen resolution can only allow buffers.pl to show around 30 before you
force it to scroll down.

I was wondering if some feature could be made to Weechat core or Buffers.pl
to simply scan through buffers by keyword or something and go there... or
present a list so I can Alt-J manually.

Just a thought.  Thank you.
