Dbt docs "search" includes field matches

Feature

Feature description

In the "search for models" search bar of the DBT Docs, it would be great to be able to search for fields, as currently it seems only to be possible to search by models.

Who will this benefit?

This would benefit business users (and data engineers) in that they would be able to determine if a field is available in the data warehouse and if it is, to see in which models it lives.

Hey @mattarderne - I transferred this issue to the dbt-docs repo. We track feature requests and bug reports (as well as do development) against this repo.

Thanks for the suggestion - it's a really good idea :)

Great!

I have used Denodo's Data Catalog quite extensively in the past and noticed that was a feature there that may prove quite useful for dbt :)
