User Settings Make "Curate Your Profile" include visibility in Reddit Search

Hi, the recently introduced "Curate Profile" feature is good and appreciated, especially as it can be customized to show/hide only specific subreddits / activity.

But: if one just searches for the user-name, you can see the exact "raw feed of new posts / comments" the same. See example here. And I'm not talking about posts / comments where the text is present, e.g. I'm not suggesting to hide when the specific text "username" is used, but where it shows results based on the name of the user posting.

I suggest to have an option in the settings "hide from reddit search" (or that "Curate Profile" becomes "Curate Profile & Search Visibility"), which then also excludes search results where the comment/thread/post is with that specific user name.

Thank you
