This offers parity with KeePass

[I haven't tried running this. It's more of a conceptual explanation of what should be done.]

Basically: we have a KeePass database which has:

Org
. Datacenters
.. Foo Center
..x Admin Account
..x User Account
.. Bar Center
..x Admin Account
..x User Account
.x Sandy Center Access

(items w/ x are entries, all items w/o are groups)

I can search for "Sandy" today in KeePassX, but my coworker has no trouble searching for "Bar" and "Foo" -- because he uses KeePass.
I agree with his KeePass database structure, the hierarchy makes a lot of sense.
I can work around this problem by stuffing metadata into Entry fields (especially URL). But the database is fairly large, and adding that metadata is busywork.

This offers parity with KeePass
