In list view search, Columns has two templates: My Defaults and System. The later is only accessible if you are an admin. As a user you can define what columns you want to see displayed for any search you do. you cannot specify columns in the JQL search itself. I don’t know what you mean by “search enough to get to status”.
Interesting. I found a thread that might be a consideration for you. It deals with removing a field from the search function. However, that might not be desirable and it may not work. My thought is that you could remove unnecessary “...status”. In that post the suggestion is “You could remove the searcher from the field (go to custom fields, find your field and use "edit" - that allows the name and searcher to be changed)”.
it might be worth reaching out to Atlassian Support to get their take on this. There may be a known issue on this already.
