In general, I think it already should be, for fields and contexts that
use appropriate analyzers, but I'd like to hear more details:

1. Which search?
2. What you're looking for, i.e. search string?
3. What you expect to find?

Hey Stas,

The general Search box was what I was using (top right corner of interface)

I typed in the following:

Readers Digest

and expected to see
Reader's Digest Q371820

but it did not appear.

Today I just checked again the same scenario, as I typed this email...

and now it does appear.

Did you improve things already ? :-)

Yes, this is how it should work. There were no changes lately, AFAIK,
but it is possible that you hit some glitch or maintenance on your
previous search. If that happen again, please tell me when and with
which search string /URL, I'll try to investigate.

Stas,

Here was the other use case...

non-equilibrium statistical mechanics
