   There is an appresource file "ExpressSearchConfig" for configuring the fields that show up in search results.
   There doesn't exist a UI for it in Sp7, but changes in Sp6 should be reflected in Sp7.

   @maxpatiiuk Users will need an interface to make these changes in the future.

   Ben's suggestion:
   Make Sp7 express search rely on the query builder UI for defining and customizing queries.
   Removes the need for creating and maintaining a separate UI.
   Express Search is already using a query builder on the back-end

   What about the relationships that are returning results? The ones that must be configured in 6?

    I wondered if it is possible to have it so that it can open the collection object, rather than the preparation record.
    Do you know if this is possible?
