Search not showing loose results

[Collinux]

When I have a note with the content "hey there dude" and I search "hey dude" the note does not show. It seems like the search function is performing an exact string search, not looking at multiple words.

@leroosje any update on this?

I have not given large thought to this because at this point in the project, it would be irresponsible to introduce a system that has potential to contain large amounts of bugs. Will continue thinking on it.

@leroosje This is a core subsystem and this functionality was clear from the initial requirements, there's no point of a search function if you can't loosely find something. It's not too complex to split the search string by spaces and re-run the query if the exact string match wasn't found.

During our meeting I explicitly and clearly stated this function was on the backburner for me in favor of the functionality i was implementing

As a team we're dedicated to bringing value to our users by implementing their top needs. There's no value in ruminating over what was or wasn't done in the past, so let's move forward with planning our product launch. Can we count on a flexible search implementation by Wednesday?

I have implemented a large amount of search functionality already, and did so with the same plan in mind as I had throughout the past few weeks. This "loose" functionality's implementation is reasonably far from the current one. I will look into it and do what I can, but no promises. I have a large amount of work in other classes to worry about as well
