List Page With Search - default search condition

I have a lookup field (using "list page with search" option) that has a dependency on another value entered in another text field. The lookup dependency works fine, except that it will only return possible values (in the pop-up) that have an exact match to the field that it is using for the dependency.
For example:
(field 1) Last_Name: "Meyers"
(field 2) Family_ID: click select link to open pop-up to show all records with "Meyer"
The problem is that I want the search pop-up to also display resulting records such as "Meyer", "Meye", "Mey", etc. This means I need to be able to change the defaul behavior being used by the lookup dependency so its requirement isn't an exact match!
Does anyone know how to do this???
Thanks,
M

Unfortunately there is no easy way to implement this feature.

This task will requires a lot of custom code in the classes/listpage.php and classes/listpage_lookup.php files.
