[Suggestion] Advanced Search Features

If it were possible, adding an advanced search feature to the Wowhead database would make everything much more easily accessible. Currently I can already find much of what I need fairly easily simply by typing the first few letters of the item/quest/npc I'm searching for. However, sometimes I find myself searching for a specific type of NPC/item/quest. Let's say a general goods NPC in a certain town, currently there's no simple way to just search for such an NPC short of pulling up the entire list of NPCs for that zone and sifting through them.
Another example, (the one that brought me to this idea initially) would be searching for specific attributes in an item. As a warlock, I find myself favoring +shadow damage gear and +stamina gear. When I already know the name of an item, it's easy to find, but when I want to know what items are out there that have these stats on them, I'm forced to sift through thousands of items in each category before finding something I like (which may not even be the best at my level).
This isn't to say that Wowhead hasn't been useful, in fact it's been the most useful site I've found since I started playing WoW. I realize that by endgame, most people know the few pieces of gear they want/need to work towards, but for everyone who isn't quite there yet (and for twinks too I guess), an advanced search feature would be a tremendous help.
Thanks,

Haha, I just came back to this post to say I found what I was looking for. The filters had everything I was just asking for and I just found out about em...
Thanks for the reply though!
