could you please add key-wording of attribute values (or provide a reason for not doing it)?
The advantage is that user can then use quick search, without using phrase search. They are logical part of the item, so I think they should be included.
From help:
"Search titles only: Check the 'Search titles only' checkbox to search only item titles (if unchecked, all item Attributes and Keywords are searched)."
Attributes are searched but gives no result if one doesn't use phrase search. (I usually add * to search string, which then also finds results in attributes)
If there is an option to search for "Item Text", "Item Notes", it might be also a good idea to add an option to the Quick/Advanced Search: "search only attributes". I have a large number of attributes and say want to search for "Austria" only in the attributes, then I have to include all the following attributes, "Address", "Location", "Country", ... and hope that I didn't forget about any of the possible location of "Austria" in some attribute.
