oci search resource PrivateIp lacks hostname/DNS label searchable attribute.

[dmitry-shiryaev]

oci search resource-type get --name PrivateIp shows that PrivateIp lacks any option to search that resource type (via oci search resource structured-search) using OCI assigned DNS/hostname labels. Is there a reasons for the lack of this searchable attribute, or is it just an oversight?

Commands such as oci network private-ip list --subnet-id return JSON objects with hostname-label attribute, so it seems that OCI internal representation of PrivateIp object has this info.

UPD.
Also, vnic-attachment resource is missing from oci search resources. It would be convenient to have that resource type as part of oci search, not just as oci compute vnic-attachment

Did a bit of digging.
https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Search/Concepts/queryoverview.htm
states privateIp as one of the supported resources. And the object reference of privateIp https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/api/#/en/iaas/20160918/PrivateIp states hostnameLabel as one of its attributes.
but when I try using oci cli search by hostnameLabel I get this:

oci --profile $OCI_CLI_PROFILE search resource structured-search --query-text "query privateIp resources where (hostnameLabel=='vm03')"
