As for searching for items...you just right click...and you get told where it is..even the tab.

This is why you should craft near a retainer bell....makes it easy.

Yes..its annoying...but what makes things easier...can be exploited.

The technical answer is that when you do "search" the game queries the server and sends back a response from each retainer. It doesn't load the retainer into the game environment. That's also why when you search for an item that is also available as HQ it will look for both. The game client, for the purposes of crafting doesn't know if you have it, thus can not proceed, and can not summon the correct retainer since it may be in more than one and the game doesn't let you summon all the retainers at once.
