Search Box on Desktop like Google Drive

Hi, Recently I found out about this cool feature on Google Drive and would like to see this helpful feature on Dropbox. Google Drive for desktop has a shortcut for opening a search bar and you can easily find your files. whenever you need a file, just hit ctrl+alt+G on the keyboard and it opens up a pop-up window on your desktop. This feature makes it so easy to search for files in no time. Since I'm not using Google Drive and I'm a big fan of Dropbox, I would like to see this feature in the near future. Thanks
