where will that search field be put?
i'm looking forward to have a global search field with a grouped
search result:
%<----------------------------------
[*hol* ] (Search)
results in:
Articles___________________
Holmes autograph
Sleepy Hollow - the movie
Party_____________________
Holmes and Watson Detectives
Holmes Inc.
Invoices___________________
Investigation to whatever
Calendar__________________
friday: Meeting with Watson and Holmes
Attachments_______________

%<----------------------------------
To have the same behaviour: put in text, and fire the search button
and take a deeper look in results.
Well, not everytime the best choice, but a lot of times very handy.
It may be necessary to define one or two global searchable fields per
model (name, description) or over every field via some fulltext-
engine.
And there should be the "old" extended search for searching inside
special Fields and/or Models.
For extended search it would be great to have a search to span over
multiple models to search for common attributes like "name" (product-
name, party-name). Maybe with an checkbox next to every model in the
list.
It would be a nice feature to surf through the resultset. I don't know
how to explain that very well. Here is an example how you can klick
through your data maybe with an indefinite tree-view, a new kind of
view or with new windows.
