Calibre Search Issues

Recently I've found that Quick searches for author names gives a lot more results than I would expect. I don't remember getting so many wrong results in the past (version 2.xx).

Am I doing something wrong or does the problem lie with the Calibre updates ?
A search for Greg Bear results in what appears to be 7 totally unrelated books.

If I do an Advanced Search for Author, then I get the desired, accurate results.

Shouldn't Quick Search work better ?
I understand if an Anthology may have the author's name which does not show up in the main window because it may be lurking under the Tags.

This is not a huge deal, but it is puzzling.

Thanks !
