Word search with space (wildcard ?)

[rbleuse]

Hello,

I'm searching words in french language with JP match: Exact mode which contains space.

Aedict 3.50.10

For example, i'm looking for the french word "en dehors".
It seems that the space character is interpreted as a wildcard and use the exact feature on all words.
This behaviour is present too in example search.
So that's not really an exact search feature.

Exact search means that the word is found as is, e.g. searching for car doesn't match carat. However, the word order doesn't matter even with exact match,

OK I understand but that sounds weird because of the 'Exact' name. Exact should search the exact user input, doesn't it ? Like in your browser search, what you type is what you want to search in the page.

I sometimes look for words or examples but I can't find them because there is an article before the word i'm looking for.

For example : 'autre jour'
I'm looking for this entry, and none filter works, I have to look for 'l'autre jour' to get this result (same problem in example search) :

Maybe this should result in a new search called 'Contains exact input' ?
This would fix these two behaviours.
What do you think ?
