Workflow improvement: How do I stop the scrollpocalypse for parameter lists?

I'm mucking around a lot with changing morphs over time, and I find that with the addition of the Muscularity morphs, I now have A LOT more 'extra stuff' in there than I'd like, in particular to get down to the particular ones I'm working on. From what I can tell, Favorites are figure specific (?!), and Parameters Organizer is outmoded... hopefuly because its features are now in Daz proper?
Is there a hidden/poorly worded setting that groups parameters by, say, provider? Some shortcut key to make the ones that have keyframes set anywhere look different?
Any other "gosh I wish I knew that when I started out" tips?

Unfortunately, the search/filter field is currently out for use to help with this as graphMate doesn't pay attention to it when using "Listen from Parameters..." option, and selects what param was there before the filtering. Also, graphMate doesn't work with the other Almost Parameters tab... so, basically I'm a bit madisappointed with gM, especially since 1.0.0.0 (current version) came out in 2012. Mcasual's equivalent doesn't have an undo (?!), so that's also out.
You can use the groups, on the left of the Parameters pane, to restrict what shows - especially if you ncheck Show Sub-items so it shows only the members of that group. You can also use favourites and save a new Character preset, then use that to load your figure instead of the stock version.
I feel your pain!
These days I've often memorized the parameters I'm looking for and I type them each single time in the search toolbar :(
