Now that @sourslaw (can't believe that is his name - lol) has potentially figured out the 1up / 2up controlled vocabulary feature... Another feature highly requested by users:

If search results are found / matched at the transcript level, can the viewer show users where the match appears on the page within the object? See this screenshot from Yale's Digital Collections site:

*One thing I don't think I like about Yale's site is that you have to perform a full-text search via the home page to get the viewer to show you these transcript results at the page-level. Users should be able to search full-text from both the home page the way Yale has it set up and also from within the viewer itself to support casual browsing/ serendipitous search if they happen to stumble upon an object while browsing and would like to search within it (not have to read the whole thing).

now that we have the general universal viewer implemented for items, is this search feature feasible? would be a really nice thing to have to show users on launch.
