Spotlight doesn't seem to be able to read content (patch names, input splitter strings/file paths, javascript code etc) in .qtz files. Does (an alternative) way to search for that patch I was looking at 2 months ago that has the word say "asteriod" for eg. in it exist?

A spotlight plugin for this would be pretty simple (assuming the spotlight api isn't too crazy). Otherwise, I don't think there's a nice GUI way to search.

In terminal-land, you could do something silly, like using find+grep:

find . -name "*.qtz" -exec grep "My Cool Search Term" {} \;

it'll take forever, but it should be able to find compositions with certain strings inside.
