The solution I use is to create a temporary "sub project" like you mention, only my method of creating the sub project is quite simple: drag the folder you want to search from the drawer to the TextMate icon in the dock.
This is a good trick, which can be used in conjunction with ACK, as suggested by YĆ«co.

If you highlight a specific folder in the project pane, then Ack-in-Project will root there instead of the whole project. -Adam V.
