Add a Back button to the Search Results window.

When searching for a VI within an application, I often want to know where several of the calling VIs are being used.  So I will search for all instances of one VI, and then search for all instances of the calling VI (repeat as needed).  Once I am finished looking at a calling VI I really want to go back to my previous search and move on to the next instance.  A great way to make this substantially easier would be to add a "Back" or "Previous Search" button to the Search Results window.

 

Related ideas are given HERE and HERE, but this seems like a low-effort, high-reward feature on its own (pretty please R&D?).

For getting the Callers (of the callers) of your vi, you can also use the VI Hierarchy.
