Well, a lot is possible.
But it's not easy.
The search is designed to be index based, which means about the same as looking up a paper dictionary, you open a page, check if you landed before or after the word you wanted and then flip back or forward.
That method simply does not work with wildcards or any other advanced search expression.
So it would need to be a completely new implementation, and it would have far worse performance.
So it's not something on my list of things I personally plan to work on.
