Search function for the special character menu

[Hab einen]

Hi!
I must work very often with special characters because i use openoffice in
the school in technical subjects. Long searches are horrible; so i got a
idea to reduce the searchtime. Why there is no search function for the
special characters menu in spelling pronunciation?

For Example,
i enter pi in the search, i got the π .
i enter and in the search, i got the &.

Is a plugin available or can you include this nice feature? ;)

Kindly Regards
