Thanks...
yes, if you try it.

NAME
Jifty::Action::Record::Search - Automagic search action DESCRIPTION
The class is a base class for Jifty::Actions that serve to provide an interface to general searches through Jifty::Record objects. To use it, subclass it and override the "record_class" method to return the fully qualified name of the model to do searches over. METHODS
arguments Remove validators from arguments, as well as ``mandatory'' restrictions. Remove any arguments that render as password fields, or refer to collections. Generate additional search arguments for each field based on the following criteria: "text", "char" or "varchar" fields Create "field"_contains and "field"_lacks arguments "date", or "timestamp" fields Create "field"_before, "field"_after, "field"_since and "field"_until arguments. "integer", "float", "double", "decimal" or "numeric" fields Generate "field"_lt, "field"_gt, "field"_le and "field"_ge arguments, as well as a "field"_dwim field that accepts a prefixed comparison operator in the search value, such as ">100" and "!100". take_action Return a collection with the result of the search specified by the given arguments. We interpret a "undef" argument as SQL "NULL", and ignore empty or non-present arguments. SEE ALSO
