Search JavaDoc in Eclipse

Is there a way to search in javadoc comments only (via Eclipse)? I just want to find text within a javadoc comment...

The only way I can think of is to use Eclipse File Search dialog for all .java files and use this regular expression as input:

"(?s:/\*\*([^\*]|\*[^/])*?###INPUT###.*?\*/)"

and replace the ###INPUT### with what you are searching for.

See this other question about this regex.
