Fast fuzzy search across your entire project is called grep. Why do we keep rediscovering tools that have existed for such a long time?
Edit: I suppose people keep rediscovering these tools because even if they use vim, they often times insist on running it as a stand-alone GUI application, rather than in a terminal emulatir where the built-in task switching/multitasking makes it very easy to run complex shell commands, move files around, use your VCS and switch back to your editor. Another benefit is that now you can have the exact same work environment over ssh as locally.
