Comment:

 You could try to gather people interested in writing something like this
 on [http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
 MacPorts users] or on [http://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa Apple
 discussions].

 But what you are describing sounds a bit like Spotlight which is already
 included in Tiger and above. You can use mdfind to query Spotlight from
 the command line.

 Example: List all files with names containing 'foo':
 {{{
 mdfind "kMDItemFSName == '*foo*'"
 }}}
 Although `locate` seems to find more entries and is faster.

 As there is nothing we can do about this right now, I am closing this
 ticket as invalid.
