"Include description" in Browse API queries (like on ebay.com)

When making a call to .../buy/browse/v1/item_summary/search?q=something

is there a way to search the description as well as the title, just like it does on ebay.com when you check the "Include description" button (which adds LH_TitleDesc=1 as a query parameter on the website)?

I'm assuming that it doesn't do this by default, based on search results for identical queries via the API and the website.

Thanks!

The traditional Finding API allows searching the description by using the field descriptionSearch=true.
