ModeratorThe goal of 1Password 8's search dropdown is to surface the most relevant item as quickly as possible rather than just presenting a list of all items that might possibly match the search term in some way and then requiring someone to go through the list to find the right item.
Our UX research group tested various approaches for search and this method of displaying the most relevant results in a dropdown was found to work best for the majority of users.
That being said, I do understand that this interface doesn't completely work for you and your feedback has been passed along to the team. For now, as mentioned, when the right item isn't available in the search dropdown you can still click on Show all matching items (or press Command-Enter) to view the full results.
