Allow Find In Files to search in hidden files/folders

Find In Files doesn't search in hidden files or folders. I'm sure TextPad 5 is just around the corner, and so I make this plea to the developers -

Can you add another checkbox to the Find In Files dialog like "Search in Hiddens Files/Folders", so that it's possible to keep the current behaviour while giving the user the option of searching in hidden files and folders if they require.

Without this feature in TextPad, FIF has a fatal design flaw IMHO.

Please add it to TP 5......

At the very least TP should search within hidden files/folders by default (this would require minimal work), although the checkbox would be the best solution.
