Searching for a workflow by its ID

I have a workflow ID number and I would like to find it in vCO. 

How do I search for and find the flow name to look at it?

ie.  I have this ID

394f8ea6-999c-448d-99ec-09049cb742de

How do I find it in the vCO client?

Excellent.  Thanks.

Quickest thing: Use the REST API!

Open a browser, point it to https://your-vco-ip:8281/vco/api/workflow/THEWORKFLOWID

(you have to login with the same credentials you use for the vCO client), then you should get some xml back that contains the name of the workflow, which now you can easily find in the search box of the client....

This is a very poor answer... for each and every ID one has to navigate to a browser and formulate a URL?

Why do we have a web interface to begin with for vRO, isn't it to help the user answer these types of questions?
