Please add stash searching.

I'd love to clean out my remove only stash tabs in Standard but I can't because:
- The stash tab ordering continues to randomly change the order (moving 1 tab causes other tabs to re-index in weird ways)
- It takes me 8 minutes in real time to scroll through all my stash tabs with a search box populated
- There is no global all-tabs stash search
- It takes 3 hours because of API limits to fetch all my stash tabs via API

Previously, I could make use of setting read-only tabs to public (without a price) and use the trade website to search my stash. However, you removed this so I can't do this anymore.

I've tried some off the shelf 3rd party utilities for this but they all run into the same issues such as:
- They ignore all items and just focus on uniques/currency/fragments (no rares)
- They suffer the same api limits, it takes 3+ hours to fetch all my stash tabs
- Or, they ultimately time out because again: the API is severely limited

Even if I am able to dump my tab and content, then trying to move items around will take me years in real time because of how slow the stash interface is.

I have certainly paid for a large number of premium tabs over the years. I'm not asking for trade enhancements here but instead stash management help.

I fully expect that eventually GGG will change their stance on remove-only tabs being forever persistent to expire after a certain number of days. I'd like to have my things in order well before this day arrives.

If stash tabs are getting new tech in PoE2 to make this all easier, then as long as you promise not to change the current persistence of read-only tabs I can get by until then.. but if not: Help!

Thanks.

Given how they've been trying to reduce the build up over time of items indexed into the trade database as well as persisting into standard, I fully expect GGG to eventually do a "You have 30 days to clean up your crap or they will be deleted forever" at some point before PoE2.

This is part of why I believe GGG has been doing more leagues post-Metamorph where the items from the league are voided at the end of the league or doing more void based events, to reduce unexpected or unplanned growth of items into standard. This is also why I suspect that certain leagues don't go core: Too many unique league widgets to index.

For those with a short memory: Metamorph was not added to core at first but at the end of the league, all the Metamorph parts were able to persist in player tabs. Eventually the league went core and people were then able to go use those previously obtained parts (in standard).

In order to clean this stuff up, there are technical limitations that make doing so for people that have been playing since the game launch, logistically impossible.. and this is the problem.

As expected, once again, the standard league dump has f'd up my stash tab order.

The problem now is when I go to un-clobber this and drag the tabs around (which literally takes hours of my time) I'll wind up with even more tabs out of order than when I started because the stash tab indexing is broken.

Please fix stash tab management! It is REALLY REALLY REALLY frustrating and woefully time consuming.

I agree it's a mess. Please GGG, throw us a bone.
