 In ModelAdmin, `get_search_result` uses an ''inner'' function
 `construct_search`  to add the __icontains ,  istartswith, iexact

 It can be much easier for more customization, if construct_search function
 was override-able.


 FYI, My Case is: i can not add a related id field to search_fields...
 have to use traversing .

 {{{
 class MyAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
     search_fields = ['client_id', # wont work
                      'client__id'  # will work ]

 }}}
