Interesting!  I'm not sure which makes more sense.  Perhaps the default
should be searching all groups under that topic, be them visible or not?
But I personally would probably prefer the other way (searching only the
visible groups under the topic), if there was a customization option.

Alternatively, or additionally, a way to control this on a case-by-case
basis and quickly, e.g. using a prefix-arg or something, would be handy
I think.
