Search by topic title only?

The search feature currently includes options for "Search topic title and message text" or "Search message text only". Is there any way to change the latter to "Search topic title only", or add it as a third option? I really can't think of any time I'd want to exclude the topic title, whereas the opposite seems like it would be much more useful when looking for pre-existing threads on a subject (like searching, say).

    You can limit the search to the first 25 words. That should mostly result in a topic title search. Otherwise, no, that feature doesn't exist.

    That also only affects the summaries that show up when your search is done, unfortunately. It still searches the entirety of all the messages as far as I can tell.

    That would be quite useful. It's quite rare that I actually need to search for body text.
