Describe the problem or limitation you are having in your project
The VisualScriptPropertyEditor is not flexible enough for general use. People keep finding and needing new workarounds to get the data/VSnodes that they want.
Describe the feature / enhancement and how it helps to overcome the problem or limitation
Upgrading the VisualScriptPropertyEditor requires the best of PropertySelector and EditorHelpSearch and the capability to convert the selected into VSNodes.
Describe how your proposal will work, with code, pseudo-code, mock-ups, and/or diagrams
The search functionality of EditorHelpSearch seems more capable and understandable so I will try to implement this as a new foundation.
Implement the filters expected of both property inspectors. These filters are dependant on the input data.
Implement filters based on scope. Now only base classes are used to give results, for example when using the input class it's most likely you only want to base results on the Inheritors. 3.1 (Optional) Make filter conditions and presets extendable and overwritable by plugins. To support different programming styles
And last, when not enough solutions are provided automatically start ignoring the filters until you find solutions.
Then reimplement the creation of nodes based on the selection. 6. And last, provide the possibility to create snippets when creating none base nodes. 6.1. Use Typecast when creating inheriter nodes. 6.2. Use HasFunction when creating unrelated nodes. 6.3. (Optional) Maybe make these sippet conditions and result extendable and overwritable by plugins. Similar to PropertyEditor
The UI
Give the old selector the topbar and search functionality of EditorHelpSearch.
If this enhancement will not be used often, can it be worked around with a few lines of script?
It can not be worked around. And will be used as often as visual script.
Is there a reason why this should be core and not an add-on in the asset library?

It is a base feature of visual script

Current progress
new UI the top bar provides filters so all options are accessible at all times.
A lot more work needs to be done, but this video may explain how the scope filter will work.
