No. I could add a series_index search term easily (just did it). Indices for custom series columns will take a bit more thinking, which I will do.

[*]Same question, but for custom columns that are series-like. This is what i really want to do - I have a series-like column called "Award" where the name of the award is the series ("Pulitzer," "Hugo," "Hugo nominated," etc.) and the series number is the year of the award.
Answered above.

[*]Regex searches seem to be forced to lower case. Can I force them to be case sensitive? (I need to find some titles that were screwed up during early fetches before I fixed the overwriting of titles by default)
No. The problem is that several places in calibre use case-insensitive matching, and the regexp searches must match the same things. Another problem is search history -- it uses case-insensitive matching to select which search from history you just used.

[*]Can I adjust the delay of "search as you type" I have trouble when doing several similar searches, so I have to turn it off.
No. Well, of course you can by changing the value in the code, but I don't think that is what you were talking about.

Would a tweak be of use?
Quote:
[*]If I can't adjust delay time, when I turn it off, I can't search for news. Hitting "Enter" closes the window. Any tips from anyone?
Sorry, don't understand. What are you doing, and what window is being closed? I type 'news' into my search bar and hit return, and I get news.
