Unlike jbovlaste, searching the text of entire definitions is possible, and complex queries can be entered by joining simpler ones together with boolean operators (though logical grouping of queries isn't implemented yet). You can even use it to get definitions for random {valsi}. On the downside, you can only search the contents of the official English word lists; however, the code is freely available for download & modification, so if you can figure out a way to improve it, you may do so. Also, note that the form manipulation relies on JavaScript, and though it has been tested successfully in recent versions of Firefox & Safari, it may not work in all browsers. Test it out and let me know what you think! mu'omi'e la'o gy.
