--- Comment #6 from Harald Sitter <[email protected]> --- Good idea. Alas, it wouldn't really solve the problem comprehensively I fear. And also complicates things... e.g. consider query 'settings' for Settings - Steam vs System Settings vs System Settings Application vs System Fan Settings vs System App Settings vs System Application Settings So it's not just position but also distance and then we'd have to roll a dice on whether distance or position is more relevant (i.e. do the shorter names come first or do the names with an earlier match come first). This rises to crazy levels of complexity when you consider that the user may typo the separator. e.g. consider query 'syste msettings' Do we take the word boundary as-is? How do we know the boundary is wrong? Do we fuzzy in two directions to find a match (query->term; term->qeuery)? And then this doesn't work in languages with compound words e.g. consider the settings query in german 'einstellungen' for KDebugeinstellungen (theoretical name ;)) vs Systemeinstellungen -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
