Extended find, if you select that on an object, indicates that the name mapping engine will search for that object either as a direct child of the object's parent or somewhere within the tree of children.
There's a lot that can be learned about the various features of NameMapping by watching the following screencast

Essentially, though, extended find I have found to be a good option to use if the hierarchy for objects is very fluid and changes dynamically from build to build. It's especially useful for Web applications... for Delphi apps, I did not find it to be a necessary feature as those applications are a lot more static when it comes to heirarchy.
