Maybe a two step process. First step would find a sentence based on 'bullt-in' heuristics and some configuration settings, it would put the selected sentences in a custom text column. User would 'examine' the selected sentences to see if they 'pass muster', if not then user can cut and paste a manually selected sentence. Second step would use the sentence to do the search.

my bad, I missed the '(inside quotation marks)'
