Currently, the saved searches are only accessible within Foxtrot, and there's no way to search for them -- not even to search by name.  I use Foxtrot to organize my workspaces, and frequently save 3 or 4 long Foxtrot searches a day.  The problem is I have no way to search through them afterward, and there's no way to export them so that I can organize them outside of Foxtrot.  The consequence is that if I don't act on a Foxtrot search result within a few weeks, that search result is practically buried within Foxtrot and I cannot find it again.  This is one area where HoudahSpot excels at compared to Foxtrot, because saved searches can be stored as a separate file.  

Please give us a way to either search through saved searches and history within Foxtrot, or allow us to export the saved searches so that we can organize them outside of Foxtrot.
