[TYPO3-english] not found in BE search

There's a bug in the BE search whereby it does not load the full TCA of 
the tables and thus does not find records from custom tables. This was 
actually fixed in 4.5, but not yet in 4.6 because it would require a 
more sophisticated patch [1] implementing the new search properties [2] 
introduced in 4.6. This has been on my todo list for a while, but I 
haven't found the time yet. Anyone else is welcome to fix it.

Cheers
