Searching 'Magnifier' does not show zoom settings

When searching for ‘Magnifier’ on GNOME 48 (both in global search and in settings search), the accessibility settings option does not appear.

A lot of keywords from the universal access panel are searchable, but not all. The magnifier settings are on the zoom sub-panel — “zoom” is one of the searchable keywords.

AFAIK the searchable keywords are defined in the .desktop file, this one: panels/universal-access/gnome-universal-access-panel.desktop.in · main · GNOME / Settings · GitLab

IDK if it makes sense to add magnifier as searchable keyword or not, just adding some information.
