I don't expect this to work. The properties of the MLO classes are not 
full text indexed at all. You would need to add tracker:fulltextIndexed 
true; for each property which would be interesting.

It would be trivial for us to add this and patch it. Anyone object?

FTS = full text search. I meant tracker:fulltextIndexed.
