If you use activity partitions instead of swimlanes then Ctrl+U does find the classifiers. Custom searches can find activity partitions too. I would recommend you use activity partitions instead of swimlanes.

Which of course fits well with the UML points you make above...
No, you can't have it!

Hi Neil,

Yes, Ctrl-U works with ActivityPartitions.

Now I'm looking for a way to create those responsibility diagrams as described earlier in this thread.
But unfortunately I see no model-level relationship or support in the tool to graphically display the usages of an element in diagrams.
That would be a very useful feature to add to EA, wouldn't it ?

In this case in order to document our internal processes, I want to produce a diagram for each role (actor) to indicate where he's involved in the processes.  I wish I could use the existing "Insert related elements..." menu item to add the diagrams in which the element appears (including as an ActivityPartition or swimlane).

Could that be registered as a feature request please?
