AEM Assets - Search for multiple items in search field

Wondering if it's possible to configure AEM so you can search for multiple items in the search field. For example, if I want to look for 2 documents at once, "doc1.pdf, doc2.pdf" would I start here? http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-0/develop/extending/assets/searchx.html#Adding%20tabs

Or is there another approach I should take. 

Thanks in advance for any help!

That is the correct topic. Of course - you can write your service component using AEM APIs that is able to search AEM JCR. See http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-0/develop/the-basics/website.html#Creating the Search Component.

Thanks a lot for responding and for sending an alternate approach! At this point we are only working with the Asset component of AEM, not the CMS, but the documentation you sent may come in handy down the line. 

Best,

Was this ever resolved? I am looking for a way for users to search for multiple assets within AEM Assets at once (ie. doc1.pdf, doc2.pdf, etc.) either using a csv file or using the search field
