I, too, have hacked in this functionality in my own Moodle installs. Once one has multiple terms' courses up in Moodle, searching on fullname returns too many results. The shortname is a unique identifier. Please add this functionality to core!

Committed Gordon's patch to 1.9 stable (after renaming $courseidsearch to $idnumbersearch).

HEAD already has configurable search fields, so this is not needed there.
