I've revamped the main search page to include these suggestions. I
hope the page isn't too cluttered, but now there are four search
sections:

- Simple search: type in a word or a phrase, and RefDB returns matches
  in any field.

- Search by unique identifier: retrieve a single dataset by citation
  key or DOI

- Simple field-based search: same as "Simple search" of the previous
  version, plus fields for volume, issue, startpage

- Advanced query: same as before

An updated screenshot is right here:
