Support full-text search across multiple attributes

e.g., typing "breast" would search for occurrences of "breast" in collection full name, collection descriptions, and BodyPartExamined (and more perhaps).

Conceptually, similar functionality is available in GDC.

The main question I have for this feature is what it would fundamentally do. The GDC portal contains pages for eg. each case, each project (collection in IDC terminology), etc. That's what their search is allowing a user to find, the sub-pages of the portal. We don't have pages like this (though we could) so there's nothing to specifically find for the user in that regard.

Is the thought to instead visually filter the Search Scope and Attributes based on this search term, like is done now in each subsection but for the whole page? Or something else? Basically a walk through of what the user would do and what would happen is a good starting point. (And if the answer is, 'receive links to pages on the sight with those occurrences' then the first step is to implement case and collection subpages.)

I think the idea is to replicate what GDC is doing, e.g., by dynamically generating those pages based on the metadata we have in various tables. How difficult would that be?

@fedorov That would be easy to do; really we just need a basic display template for Patient and Collection pages. The data isn't difficult to put into Solr at all, again just need to know what all we'd like to display and how. If you want I can throw together a basic page based on GDC's layout and we can iterate from there.
