Comment 15 for bug 29227

If there is still some reason why you can't change the indexer's list of word separators yet, can you not at least temporarily modify the word separators used to analyze the query, so that a query for "/dev/pmu" will find bugs containing " /dev/pmu " (or in my case a query for "mantis-275" will find a bug containing the string " mantis-275 "). Currently search is totally broken and almost useless since even an exact text match of a white-space delimited word containing hyphens, dots or slashes doesn't find them at all.
