Linking search fields to resources

Graham Criddle

If I try and choose a search field against a collection of Bibles then the options presented seem to be the union of the options for each Bible in the collection - which makes sense.

For example, in the search below I know that HCSB provides searching against "OT Quotation" which is why this option is present.

It would be useful if we could go from the search fields drop-down to find out which resources in the current set supported which search fields.

This would enable us to refine the resource set before actually doing the search which could save time. 

Would it be possible to implement a right-click capability on each field to show the resources which are searchable on that field?

After taking some minutes to make that choice the search will still take a fraction of a second[:D] But you are assuming that every resource is searched when a big, fast index is actually being searched; the resource is opened only when it is known that it has results!
