Hi
I believe the problem is end user having to navigate long list of value to select them, either on the form or in a relationship (as he has specified "not in Search Grid")
Now if you make an Item Type instead of a List, you can make a relationship out of it, where the Search function is available OOTB.
that's why in this case I use this approach:
A search button to populate a hidden relationship. the search button open the search dialog to Item Type, so I can use all operator. In addition, you can add more properties to the Item Type to classify the list of value to help the user to filter down.
