Is this a feature for the backend or frontend?

Frontend

What would you like?

I have a friend who uses the planka to manage issues of apartment houses with planka.
Atm. she has 64 of them and all of them does not fit to the title area on her monitor.

When she needs to open the issues specific to a house she usually hit ctr+f type in the first part of the name then clicks on it.

I would envision putting a magnifier button (in the case if the title area is full) here:

This would open a full screen board selector. Something similar to the boxes of the project selector.

Why is this needed?

Easier board selection with mouse in the case if too many boards under a project.

Other information

Hey! That's a really nice addition. I'll try to take a look at it when I have some time.

Hi Maksim,

Actually I started to play with it last night, and I got it rolling:

It is still very rough:

The search button needs to be better integrated into the tab bar :D
It has a few alignment issues
I need to figure out how to scroll the tabs after the selection in the dialog
It needs to be prepared to mobile view: maybe a filtering input would be helpful in the case if not all tiles are visible

Nice work so far! I think the best approach would be to show a popup instead of a full modal - similar style when you click on members. The popup could immediately focus the search input, making it convenient to click and start typing to filter the boards...
