Can this be added to the List API docs please?

You can use searchColumns in the options when you initialize the list like this:

var options = { valueNames: [ 'name', 'lastname','birthdate' ], searchColumns:[ 'name', 'lastname' ] }; var userList = new List('users', options);

In this example you would have 3 fields (name, lastname, birthdate) and the search function would use only name and lastname.
