You can type to search in that second screenshot. Just hold shift and type in the name.

Having a magnifying glass there would feel more natural or intuitive though.

Ya, that's true.

I was thinking the same thing. some windows could benefit having a search button built in.

it'll be cool if such a search function could be normal and remove items that don't match, or have an option to type "stone" to get all things made of stone or "food" to get all food things.

Many windows do have search functionality, though, I agree it's not obvious. I'll add some icon to a window that has it to help indicate that it's there. Currently, at the bottom of the screen is the search bar. It shows a label for the focused UI element that can be searched. You can click it or hold shift to enter text to filter things or find settlers. I will be adding this search feature to most UI windows, but it does take time to get through them all.
