It is really frustrating that it is not possible to search in deleted files and restore individual files.
It has happed a number of times that we have been cleaning up and perhaps deleted hundreds of files, and then I realize that I need a single files back, so I would like to be able to search for it by (partial) name.
Right now search in deleted files isn't supported at all, and searching in events often won't find files either.
And even if I do manage to locate the file in a batch of hundreds of deleted files my only option is to restore all of these at the same time, so if only want one I would have to spend a long time marking all of the other files and delete them again.

I can totally sympathize with that frustration! It's definitely a pain point forcing extra cleanup work just to recover one single file.
The ability to perform a quick search and select individual items for restoration is a critical quality-of-life feature that would bring significant efficiency gains to the system.
