Search based on what folder the music file is in? [SOLVED]

Can Amarok's search function search for files based on what folders they are in?  I arrange my music by putting them in different folders and it would be nice to be able to search by folder name.  I know this functionality is available in Winamp, but I haven't found a Linux audio player that has the same functionality out of the box.  For example:

Folder: "Winamp music"
Files: file1.mp3, file2.mp3

In Winamp if I put "Winamp" in the search field both mp3 files will come up even if there's nothing in the file or ID3tags with the keyword I searched for.  With Amarok nothing comes up.

Any workaround to this besides retagging all my music files?

Thanks.
