split_search(searchstring [str or unicode], 
                      keywords [list or tuple])
                      
  Splits the search string into a free text part and a dictionary of keyword 
  pairs. For example, if you search for 'Something from: Peter to: Lukasz' 
  this function will return 
  'Something', {'from':'Peter', 'to':'Lukasz'}
  
  It works equally well with unicode strings.
  
  Any keywords in the search string that isn't recognized is considered text.
