Designer - Find constants containing value

Question

Is there any way to search all our constants for constants with a particular value contained in their list of values? 
 Our options are By name/description, UUID or UI, or by expression. 
 None search the values of our constants.

Sadly no. 
 Back when "by expression" searching was introduced, I had a fleeting moment of hope that it would search constant values too (since otherwise it has nothing to do with constants), but alas. 
 You could always file for a product enhancement with Appian, I suppose.

Similarly, I usually try to include descriptions that mirror what the constant contains (if/when possible), for this reason. Easily done for plaintext, IDs, process model (names), etc.

I normally use by expression for this kind of use case and hopefully, it's something unique enough that you will find it.
