No, thanks for signaling the bug.

In the git version I wrote code to address this common use case, using 
the tree window, and i'd like to know if you find it more user friendly 
or not.
1) Search for a player (usually an opponent)
2) Open the tree window and the best games window
3) In the tree window there is a check button "all games": if checked, 
games and stats include all the database; if not, results include only 
the games of the searched player.

I usually start with the "all games" unchecked, to see the openings and 
the lines played.
When i found a position that was never played or a line that i consider 
interesting i check the "all games" and take a look at how the strongest 
players have played that position in the most recent games.

Naturally, the AND in the search function is more flexible and must be 
fixed.
Bye,
Fulvio
