situation -you want certain elevated users (like board members) to have a profile database menu button then they can add items to the database (like contact lists, member status's, fundraising leads, past grants..etc)
they should be able to add categories item name type and data (mostly text)
ofcourse the module should only search items added through the database module

I know not alot of sites wouldn't need something like this but i know freedoms wings could surely use it and i bet it would be useful to other sites run by organizations

You could use the jrAparna module to create a skeleton module, then use the Form Designer to add the fields you want to that modules form.

Use the quota system to only allow the module to be accessible for profiles in the board members quota.

Maybe even a module for each type:
CONTACT LISTS | MEMBER STATUS | FUNDRAISING LEADS | PAST GRANTS

Then use something like this:
{jrSearch_module_form fields="(YOUR MODULE PREFIX)_name,profile_bio,profile_genre"}
