App search

When I go to an app search, the app will come up but with no clue as to where on my phone the app is. I have been used to putting tons of apps into folders, but knowing where it is when I wish to delete it would be helpful. (Yes, I know, you can delete out of the app library.) So, coult this be returned in a future update to the iOS?

When you search for an app from the search field on the home screen, then the resulting app(s) is displayed. The folder location is shown only if you enter the app name in full. If you enter a partial app name then the folder location is not shown. If an app is not in a folder then, of course, there is no folder to show.
