Yep Kevin is right but I do think I can give a short at what Bryan has
sugfested and see either I can convince my stake holders to the
functionality it offiers else, I will be in search of how to modify live out
of the box search provided by Hobo. Ideal scenario for me is to allow filter
on the out of the box search for example a drop down list a user can select
to search Entity A or B or C or ...

I think he was referring to the live-search and not a particular model
search.  I looked but found no documentation on how (if possible even)
to change what the live-search searches.  I know there's a search
method on the front controller by default but as to how to go about
changing it, don't know.
