Search in PyCharm interactive console command history

Question

PyCharm keeps a command history for it's interactive Python console.

Is there a way to access this history with some sort of search instead of just browsing the entries with the arrow keys in the interactive console window?

My environment: PyCharm 2.7 EAP (124.138) on MacOS X 10.8.2.

Nowadays, there is "Browse Console History" button located to the left of python console. It works on all OS where PyCharm works.

In Windows and Linux there is Ctrl+Alt+E which does exectly the same, but it may not work on Linux if it is overriden by system hotkey Alt.
