Example: given the following:

- foo
  - fizz
  - buzz
    - foobear

... what should - foo match?

The top-level foo and all its descendants?

- foo
   - fizz
   - buzz
     - foobear

Let's say you have:

top

nested

If you search for - nested, I'm pretty sure you'll get the top-level item, since its plaintext will include nested. You shouldn't.

On the other hand, if you had:

top

nested

Then - nested should give you that top item.

I need to think a bit about how I want to do this!
