You can search the body of messages just by doing an unlabeled search.
Just hit \ and then type your search phrase and it will search the body
of messages.  Not sure whether it will also search subjects.  But you
can explicitly search them by doing subject:whatever search.

I don't know the full list of search categories (probably a quick code read
would find it), but here are several:

subject:
to:
from:
is: (e.g. is:unread)
on: (e.g. on:today)

Also, doing multiples (e.g. is:unread label:sent) does the logical AND.  Not
sure how to do OR though.

You can enclose search phrases in quotes and, like I said before, not 
specifying a category (and not doing a colon) searches message bodies.
