Is there any desktop search application (e.g. WDS, Copernic, Google
Desktop) that will search Onenote notebooks from outside of Onenote
and present a PREVIEW of the results?

I have WDS 3.0 installed on one machine and it points to onenote
pages with the text that I am searching for but it doesn't present any
preview (it just links to a stub indicating the file-folder
location).

If not available now, does anybody know of any plans for WDS to
support preview via external searches in the future? Any other
solutions? Thanks.

No.
There are no previewing options for either Windows Journal files or
OneNote files.
Would be great if there were though.

that would be my number 3 request for the next version (behind
multi-speed controls for the audio and hundreds of customizable pens).

nice request...

One of my nitpicks would be a template dialog that is friendly to a
portrait tablet - a long template name (such as the yellow legal pad
from online) expands the default (middle) dropdown and shrinks the
template name dropdown to the point that they are hard to use.

Quite bothersome, but not a big deal.

I realize my last post in this thread did a lot to derail the topic of
conversation, so please disregard as required.

thanks
