Tomas,

Right now, if I add a searchable for organization-id to the :content_views
resource, the option is scoped as --content-view-organization-id. I think
it may be beneficial to modify the DependentSearchablesOptionBuilder in
hammer-cli-foreman to accept another option, scope_to_resource. This option
would default to 'true', and the behavior would remain as is, but if it's
set to 'false', this logic
<https://github.com/theforeman/hammer-cli-foreman/blob/master/lib/hammer_cli_foreman/option_builders.rb#L232>
would change to make the option at the top level (i.e. --organization-id
instead of --content-view-organization-id). Here's what I was thinking:
https://gist.github.com/akofink/c1682bfbdf70e848deeed7be6eb31063

The SEARCHABLES array would accept options like this:

SEARCHABLES = {
  :hostgroup => [
    s_name(_("Hostgroup name")),
    s("title", _("Hostgroup title"), editable: false, scope_to_resource:
false)
  ]
}

I wanted to run this by you before beginning work on it to make sure it
seems sensible. Also, since the logic wouldn't be Katello specific, the
change should be able to go into hammer-cli-foreman; Extending the
DependentSearchablesOptionBuilder from hammer-cli-katello seems like it
might get messy.

​Thanks,
