First, create a custom column "extra title" (give it a name!).
Leave the the title as it should be.
Then, you create a plugboard for your device, which will use the "extra title" instead of "title" when creating the title name. Now you will be able to use the search feature, and still have the correct meta-data title in your book on your device.
For instance:
Let's take a book I know has a subtitle:
Title: Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.
Series: Harry Potter 1.
Combining this would look silly:
"Harry Potter 1 - Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"
So, in that extra column ("extra title"), you'd put
"The Philosopher's Stone".
Your plugboard would create
"Harry Potter 1 - The Philosopher's Stone"
Is this what you are trying to reach?
