A way to get around this is to use the Others function to create another target container. Drag in your FileVault directory, and also add at least one other location as well -- for some reason, this does not work if you use only the FileVault-enabled home directory. Note that you can create or select a dummy folder created somewhere to get around this problem.
If you really only want to search your Home directory, you can try this rather clumsy workaround:
- Do the "Others" stuff as described above.
- Press Save and store your save results (the Others selection are not sticky as a location unfortunately), and check the Sidebar checkbox.
- If you don't want the search string you defined to be part of the search, edit your search string as explained in this older hint.
