How can I modify JIRA’s Quick Search filter?

Currently it defaults to searching only summary, description, and comment:

summary ~ xxxxx OR description ~ xxxxx OR comment ~ xxxxx

I want it to search another field too. It’s a simple add on to the current search:

summary ~ xxxxx OR description ~ xxxxx OR comment ~ xxxxx OR new_field ~ xxxxx

I am aware I can save my own searches as a filter, but can I edit, specifically, the Quick Search at the top right of the screen?

    You can’t add an abritrary field to quick search, but the Quick Search feature does support shortcut strings which will query commonly-required data from other fields. See the JIRA docs.
