As you know, Bob, ... hey! the cliche is true here!
Searching for a particular word can be useful for a rough cut, or for
finding a conflict. Given that he was just what-iffing, it's
reasonable here. For a real conflict check of an actual design,
though, you often have to look at entries via Mark 1 Eyeball.
Teceangl in An Tir has a party trick where she tries to list every
synonym for "canine" that has ever been registered in the SCA
Armorial, and she says she usually misses a few each time.
On the other hand, I don't know of a way to get a "bordure" except via
the word "bordure" (unless you're worried about a visual conflict with
an inescutcheon), or a water-bouget without "bouget".
