Better search functionality

Hi,
it would be nice if subsonic would provide better searching possibilities.
In earlier versions of subsonic you could much better diversify your search.
Now there is only the possibility to fill in 1 serach field and you get results for artist, song, album.
If you look for a special artist or a special album there is no way to get exact search results but you are confronted with a lot of search results you never intended to look for.
Therefore I suggest to invent the possibility to look seperate for artist, title and album and to specify a exact phrase of more than 1 word.
Alt least it shoulkd be possible to use most of the common search-parameter that are used in search-engines or in the extended search of a forum software.
There should be a mouse-over tooltip with the possible parameters to use.
