Search doesn't return matching entries if they start with not
This is a weird little issue I found today when I was trying to search for a book title that had "not" as the first word in the title.
I didn't use a metadata prefix ( title: ) in the search so it applies specifically to a plain search.
I searched on the term Not Quite According to Plan and even though that was the exact title of the book in my library, it didn't come up in the results.
I knew that couldn't be right, so I messed around and figured out that this only seems to be happening when the first word in the search is "not" and it's not inside quotes (which I don't do when I'm just trying to quickly search for something, of course, because maybe I'm not sure it's the exact title).
I have several stories in my library that start with not so I was able to test it for a variety of books.
So, heads up, if you're searching for a book that starts with not, be sure to use a metadata prefix in your search or you might not get all the results. Not sure if this is intentional behavior or just an artifact of the code or whatever. Or maybe it's a known issue and I just didn't know about it.
