Well, a user might know what he's looking for. Or do you mean that
statement in a more technical sense?
In the latter case, `helm-occur' does something similar namely
dynamically narrowing down a buffer to lines that match a given regex as
you type it. It does that in a separate buffer and prefixes the the
matching lines with some metadata (file, line), but I think that should
be doable also on the current buffer.

Yeah, that would be an alternative approach.
