"ParseError: Token 'EOF' required, u'(' found" when doing api.content.find(Title='(test)')

[idgserpro]

Using api.content.find(Title='(test)') we get the error:

ParseError: Token 'EOF' required, u'(' found. This is because we have a limitation in Products.ZCTextIndex with some special chars like ( (check zopefoundation/Products.ZCTextIndex#2).

Plone 5, in default search view, already does something to avoid this error in https://github.com/plone/Products.CMFPlone/blob/5.1b4/Products/CMFPlone/browser/search.py#L28. Wouldn't be the case to something similar in api.content.find?

Here's a workaround:

from Products.CMFPlone.browser.search import quote_chars
api.content.find(Title=quote_chars('(test)')
