Comment (by joedolson):

 Given that the performance issues with meta searching are pretty much
 something we're stuck with, I'd be pretty happy with something that made
 it available as an option.

 I'm not sure that 'Advanced' would be a suitable text for a checkbox, by
 itself, but an  'Advanced' checkbox that toggles a panel where you can
 select which meta fields to search could be useful.

 This could be filterable, so that hypothetically any meta field could be
 searchable, which I can imagine as useful for some plugins.
