The simple patch below allows you to search on custom fields with the
syntax .fieldName:value.
The : is chosen to match fulltext, although a delimiting = may be
clearer for your users. This was
done so that I could add a "Tags" custom field to queues for free from
annotation & searching
of tickets with relationships that cannot be represented with links
(but perhaps queues, at the
expense of manageability)

An earlier incarnation matched /cf.(\w+):(\w+)/i but this seemed
unnecessarily verbose.
