The so-called "global search" on Palm Pre (where you start typing characters into the launcher) only finds contacts of what you're searching is the title of the contact. It won't find it if it's inside the details of the contact. How do I really globally search the contacts?

Bounty removed. As this is not possible with the Palm Pre, there is no value in adding a bounty to this question. If this is ever made available and the question was not answered within the bounty period, which is highly unluckily, no answer can ever be accepted because of the bounty expiring. – Diago Jan 3 '10 at 13:14

There is currently no way to search contacts by those fields; right now, search only works on first/middle/last name, company name, and nickname. And as far as I can tell, there's no homebrew solution for this either.
