 Replying to [comment:23 boonebgorges]:
 > To my ears, `is_searchable` means "do the contents of this field appear
 in search results". More appropriate is `create_search_links` or something
 like that.

 Agree 100%

 > The UI label description should have some info about the linking works
 for text fields. It's kinda hard to explain - chunks of text between
 commas, etc - so if anyone has suggestions, please jump in.

 What's the convention on help text? Is there a CSS class? Should it be
 provided as tooltip to a "question mark" icon image?...
