Well, I just don't know how I missed that one. :)
That worked...I did a few tests with the following results....

I created a collection with two word docs in it...each had a single word 
in the body ("foo" in doc2 and "blah" in doc1).  I then updated doc2 in 
the index using:

<cfindex action="UPDATE" collection="testdocs" 
key="D:\testdocs\doc2.doc" type="FILE" custom1="jingle santa rudolph">

So now the custom1 field was populated with "jingle santa rudolph".

cf_custom1:`jingle` - Match doc2
cf_custom1:`jingle santa rudolph` - No Match
cf_custom1:'jingle santa rudolph' - Match doc2
cf_custom1:'jingle santa' - Match doc2
cf_custom1:'santa jingle' - No match
cf_custom1:jing - No Match
cf_custom1:jing* - Match doc1
blah cf_custom1:jingle - No match
blah OR cf_custom1:jingle - No Match
foo cf_custom1:jingle - Match doc2

Just to make sure, I did the following searches to make sure the regular 
search terms were working as I would expect them to...
foo - Match doc2
blah - Match doc1
foo blah - Match doc1 and doc2

So it looks like the field search will do an exact match of a word or a 
phrase and accept a wildcard, but it seems to always act as a logical 
AND.  So while it is good for filtering results, it's not really usable 
to increase the "searchable" text of your collection.  I also noted that 
the backticks only worked on search terms with no spaces...in order to 
filter on a term with spaces, I had to use single quotes.

I'm not sure if this will help anybody...I was hoping it would be a 
solution to something I am working on (and possibly to the original 
post), but unfortunately I don't think it is.
