In larger tables, sometimes finding the column in the grid/form list is just a stupid search. 
Would it be possible to create a search, that will highlight (not filter) the matching columns? 

In the right upper corner you type something like 'item_tracking_number’ and the matching row lights up like a Christmas tree!

It is possible to jump to the column you are looking for by selecting a value in the specific column (no default editable of course) and then typing the name you are looking for. The GUI will try and find the value matching your typed characters.

And you're just telling me this now !? 
Anyway, I still stand by my case for a search field :sunglasses:
