Why can't i search by key, like a song in mixolydian?

Would be amazing to see a new tab with the ability to search on a key; G Major, D Mixolydian etc

Thanks!

I can sort of understand why “search by chords” shifts minor tabs to the relative major—lots of people think of i, VI, III, VII as vi, IV, I, V, for example—but with anything else it completely breaks down. If somebody’s looking for, say, I, vi, IV, nothing in Mixolydian is going to show up, and nobody’s going to think to search V, iii, I in order to find those too (plus if they did, they’d also get everything in major with those chords). There’s probably lots of confusion between minor and Dorian as well, both among people making tabs and people searching for them.
