Yes.

But while i think of it, being able to do the same for attachment descriptions, attachment file name, tags, and http links(within the text).

If some thing is in the summary line, then it is very closely related to the topic of the bug (if not the actual topic).

If something is mentioned in the "further information" text only then it is not likely to be the topic, but is related to the topic with some importance. i.e. a factor influencing the topic.

So being able to distinguish between the two sources of search results, would help correlate problems (in summary) and causes or solutions (both in "further information" but Not in summary).

For summary and Further information (FI), the following search combinations would be available ;
1) search for word in (S) only, don't care (FI)
2) don't care (S), search for word in (FI)
3) search for word in both (S) and (FI)
4) Make sure the word is not in (S), but search for word in (FI)
5) search for word in (S), but make sure the word is not in (FI) <== (available but not needed very often)

So for each field the text might be searched for in (e.g. S, FI, attachment, etc), there are three options for how they are used in the search.
i) Word must be present
ii) Word must not be present
iii) Word doesn't matter for this field
