Find-as-you-type with joker sign, like "*pattern"

Is there a feature to type an joker sign like '>' or '*'
in the list following by an letter
to jump to an word containing this letter?
(I didn't find an hint in the help/wiki/forum.)


For example
i have this file names:
Maria Mena - Nevermind me.mp3
Maria Mena - Our Battles.mp3
Maria Mena - Self Fulfilling prophecy.mp3
Whimsical ft. Maria Mena - Everytime.mp3

Now i want to jump to an song like "Self Fulfilling"
without using the address bar (>self).
But just like i can type an 'M' to cycle to all "Maria" 's
or an 'W' to jump to "Whimsical"
i would like to type f.ex. '*self' to jump to that song.

Can you give me an hint please...

Or if this feature is not implemented yet could it be?
I imaging an implementation like:
If i type such an joker in the list view, XY should wait up to 2 seconds if i type an following letter.
If i type an letter the count is reseted and XY waits again...
If i do something else ... or do nothing for 2 seconds... this special feature expires.


find me:
find as you type
type and find
