Search or not?!?

Could be even more misleading ...

Say you have a piece of equipment, a ring, with a gem in it (that also has a description of the gem in itself). Then you find a room with a hidden gem inside a description and readily go 'exa gem' -- ending up getting the description of the gem in the ring instead of in the room.

That's sometimes not very obvious, if you aren't aware of the description of the gem in the ring. So it's not just items on you, but also possible descriptions on those items

But as Snafu said, chalk one up for 'in room', it's easy to forget.

This is of course a nice feature in a 'normal' area, but I really don't want this in a quest area, 'cause then you would have to do 100 verbs for every single piece of (possible) item in every room, so you don't miss out on a clue or an object needed in the quest...

My opinion on this would have to be that it is always a good thing to add as many verbs and sub-items as possible - but that any important clue or object needed in quests should be given either in examine, or in a verb hinted strongly about in examine.

Well, that's me.
