Thanks for the input John.

A search for a string that does not exist does not return results – as expected. Or am I missing something here?

The term can be in the title OR content OR any custom field defined in meta_query.

Are you saying WordPress forces an AND to it.

WordPress forces
post_title, post_content AND (custom_field_1 OR custom_field_2 …) ?

But I want
post_title, post_content OR (custom_field_1 OR custom_field_2 …) ?

thanks, D.
