find-grep-dired works, but unfortunately what I need is the grep output of 
matching lines within each file. There are generally many many individual 
matches for any given search, and narrowing it down to searching 30 files 
instead of 50 isn't sufficient. The dired-do-igrep (or grep-find tho I can't 
see how to limit the search to marked files as with igrep) results are 
exactly what I need. I haven't been able to find any remote search solution 
that does anything similar. In fact the only remote search that seems to work 
is the incremental dired-do-search, which is great in some instances, but not 
generally sufficient.

Thanks for your help, tho!
