Description
When searching across files results may show one match several times
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new project group

2. Create a new VCL application project into this group

3. Save it's default form as Unique.pas

4. Create another new VCL application into this group

5. Save it's default form as Shared.pas

6. Add shared.pas to the first project

7. Call 'Search for files' (Ctrl-Shift-F) and look for 'Shared' while 'where' set to 'all files in project group'

8. You'll see that 'Shared.pas' mentioned twice (see screenshot in the attach)
Workarounds
I guess there is no passable workaround. It needs either exclude file from a project and use some implicit linking, such as via search path (I guess it's a very bad and much unprocessable way) or changing 'where', say, using 'search in directory', which isn't comfortable if using file structure like

Root
Root\Common Library
Root\Project Group1
Root\Project Group1\Files 1
Root\Project Group1\Files 2
....
Root\Project Group2\
....
