It is indeed convenient, though I think it would be more convenient if
I were able to search by attribute. Am I able to make a feature request?
How would I go about requesting that?

ye one attribute i've been storing is my contacts' pronouns, which is
useful for looking up per contact rather than for searching.

My use case for searching is I have many friends with varied interests,
and if I wish to share knowledge to my friends with whom I have a
shared interest, it'd be useful to look up contacts by interest.
I guess the closest feature currently available is the "Remarks" column.

An oddity I observe with the Other Attributes: They use XML entities,
so I need to type & to display &.
