Is the Workflow Action based on the field it's used on, rather than hard-coding a specific field?

Hello,

I am trying to make a simple search workflow action that can be used on any field with a URL or IP address. Currently the only method I know to pass a value is to do $fieldname$ in the workflow action definition. However, there are tens of fields that can contain an IP address or URL (src, src_ip, s_ip, dest, dest_ip, d_ip, etc). What I'd like to do is to simply allow any field to use the workflow action and pass the value of the field it is used on to the search rather than attempting to hard-code all these fields into it or creating a new workflow action for each field?
