[Feature request] Search preview

Often I look for PDFs that contain certain keywords. While Zotero will identify the PDFs it does not provide a preview of the PDF where the search term is. This makes it hard to know if the PDF is appropriate to look at.

Mendeley provides a one-line preview of the PDF text which I find useful.

This would be great.

Showing all the results would be even more amazing (like adobe acrobat's advanced search feature).

If I want to search through PDF in just a collection for keywords, I have to use an external program like adobe acrobat which takes time because I have to export all the PDFs and then the program has to search them all.
