Why not add a "Keyword(s)" field to the Search page? I am thinking particularly of the ability to search on Occupation - in fact, that might as well be an alternative suggestion: to be able to search on that field, when it has been indexed in a record.

I have an example of trying to find a John Wright in the census, when I know he was a shipwright, but that he moved about the country (England) quite a bit and wasn't always consistent when providing a birthplace.

It would be a great help in being able to narrow down ones searches on this basis - it's available on Find My Past, so why not FamilySearch?
