Flask admin add referencefield to Column_searchable_list problem

Can not add ReferenceField to column_searchable_list

Exception: Can only search on text columns. Failed to setup search for < mongoengine.fields.ReferenceField object at 0x7f093478e090>

Needs Implementation or can be overridden by any trick ?

Search on non-text column in flask-admin

EDIT:

allowed_search_types = (
    StringField,
    URLField,
    EmailField,
    ReferenceField
)

this does work only if fully type reference string, it does not work as "contains" operation
