Can't search notes/description field?

Perhaps there's a setting I'm missing, but it appears Launchbox isn't searching for entered terms in the Notes field. Is there something I'm missing? Just in case I'll be creating a feature request, as this seems like something that would be very useful - I can't imagine adding a "mining" genre to all such types of games would be more efficient than just searching an existing field. And it would add even more value to the new dynamic filtering. I couldn't find this previously mentioned in either the forums or the repository site.

Does anybody remember being able to search notes? I could have sworn you were able to in the past, but now all it seems to search are all other detail fields (genre, title, etc). It was custom filters I think and I guess they were removed for performance purposes(?) Well if anybody actually wants to search all fields including description/notes, there's searching through the XML.
