Thank you Dave!
As you've noticed on the screenshots, we do have shortened organization name as a prepend in our vault naming scheme - in fact, there's a whole system for naming the vaults. My example might not be the most indicative of the issue we are facing, since I cannot see all the vaults in the organization. Since 1Password does not support dynamic updates for duplicate items inside different vaults, when we need to share a certain password with a certain individual and retain control over it to avoid foul play (zero trust and all that), we create a different vault - and name it according to our internal naming scheme. As you can imagine, with time that creates a clutter of thousands of vaults and duplicates of vaults - and searching through them in list view (especially for account owners) is kind of a nightmare. I do understand that that there is a way to search for a specific vault via the web interface, but it would definitely be nice to have that same functionality built into the desktop app - so that there is a way to sort through, remove duplicates, or just generally get an idea of what is shared where through the desktop application.
TLDR: The current systems in 1Password lead to thousands of vaults and duplicates, making it difficult to search and manage. While the web interface allows vault searches, adding similar functionality to the desktop app would help sort, remove duplicates, and track shared items more easily.
