All-fields index/search in 1Password?

1password -- Desktop app, 1Password for Linux 8.12.28 (81228025), at least ... -- does not search content in added TEXT sections, which are frequently used for adding & organizing additional item notes, as there's only one 'Notes' section enabled.

Search for information has been a long-standing, oft-repeated issue; examples below.

1Password serves as a secure information manager -- for all data entered.
If data's entered, it's of interest.
And should be searchable/findable/retrievable.

Does, or will, 1Password support indexing/search of ALL assigned/populated fields?

Hello ​@pg1p! 👋

Thanks for reaching out! Can you clarify how you’re searching in the 1Password For Linux app? When I search for text that’s in a custom text field (not the default field), that item appears in search results: 

I noticed that you've posted a few different threads, but they seem to describe different issues. For example, you mention using the 1Password for Linux desktop app, while one of your threads is about the browser extension, where search functionality is currently more limited.

Once I have a better understanding of exactly what you're experiencing, I'll be happy to advise further. I look forward to hearing from you.
