Bible Word Study Textual Searches?

I'm trying to spend a lot of time getting up to speed on all the Logos stuff I've ignored for years. So I recently discovered that in the Bible Word Study tool, you can do a Textual Search in the Hebrew Bible, the Dead Sea Scrolls Sectarian Manuscripts (if you have that)... but there doesn't seem a way to also add that in for Hebrew Inscriptions. Ditto for Aramaic Inscriptions, letters, etc. 

I would really like to see those added. 

It seems like the extra biblical Semitic material gets short shrift, e.g. 
they're missing from the Factbook https://community.logos.com/forums/p/225322/1315349.aspx#1315349

they're lacking a good central collated database https://community.logos.com/forums/p/215205/1297228.aspx#1297228

and we could use some broader Semitic lexicons https://community.logos.com/forums/t/146684.aspx?PageIndex=1

    Good ideas!

    I mainly use the Patrologia one due to my forgeting they're there.  But the inscriptiobs would also be good reminders.
