It comes up from time to time and I'm wondering of it's possible to use type info when searching in visual studio, or is there a plugin that includes this?

I'd like to search for the phrase

"x == "

or

"x.ToString();"

where x is of type 'Person'. The normal regex searches are strictly searching the text as opposed to the content and I figured out a long time ago that any thought I have is never the first.
