At first I thought this would work with a MySQL FULLTEXT index, but of
course it won't because the field names would be in more than 50% of
the records and would therefore be considered stopwords.

Nifty as this is, then, it only works if all querying is handled by
your application or an application using a platform that includes its
own sufficiently reliable search index. Clients who want/need to
create their own SQL queries are out of luck, or forced to use LIKE
expressions.
