On the Resto site, I have the search function automatically search for
external SKUs without them being in the list of keywords (for instance,
see the quick order functionality).

A lot of search engines ignore numbers (at least some of them do).

Anyone have any strong opinions on this?  I assume it was programmed
that way for a reason (I don't think I programmed this part for
Freetrade, although I did for Resto).
