Build multiple indices. The overhead will be quickly recouped the first time you try to locate a partial field that is embedded. If this is something that is going to change "whimsically," then rebuild the index every time you need to. Once the table is indexed the first time, subsequent index ops (on the same workstation) should be almost instantaneous.
