It's not clear to me whether there is any expected way to search the FileSet content more efficiently than just by using the FileSet.iterator(). I expect that due to universality of FileSet contents the possible searching is solely in responsibility of the particular subclasses but IMHO it could be valuable to mention it in e.g. javadoc of FileSet.iterator().
IMO this will be satisfied by solution proposed in issue #33905. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 33905 ***
