minimal example of "find usages" regression

using "Find Usages" in a javascript file results in a dialog stating "find usages cannot be applied in this context"

this is a regression relative to 7.2 which would perform the search and present the results

in the simple example attached, every location that i've tried "find usages" has failed. eg, with the cursor on  foo.stuff(), ie the final line

This is right. Also is true that this is regression. Unfortunately there was not time to reimplement this feature. I will try to add it ASAP.

Find usages doesn't work with inline JavaScript inside a html file or tpl. :/
Comment 4 Christian Lenz 2015-09-29 10:22:22 UTC 
This feature is really needed. For angular it would be better too.
