Interesting background and suggestion, Friedrich. Thanks for that. I see that
you are on this issue for some time already. 

Since I'm new to this system, I'm not sure if your wish regarding the move
addressed me or Waqar Ahmed, although I would assume the latter.

As commented on
https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kio/-/merge_requests/1314#note_728978 I would
think that Kate actually relied on a behaviour change that was reverted in the
mean time as it broke things for filter expressions as used also in file picker
dialogs.

The current (restored) logic in KIO's KCoreDirLister for name filters matches
that of Qt for name filter properties. I.e. name filters here using the
wildcard expression syntax. Which is non-partial.

The UI pattern used in Kate's File System Browser plugin though is that of
narrowing-while-you-type. Where the expression supported usually does not
support even wildcards. Rather acts as if every letter is wrapped with
wildcards ("sf" matching also "somefile"). So IMHO Kate code would need to
convert the expression entered in the field into the syntax used for classic
wild card file system expressions, as so far used with class properties of type
"name filter".

If you agree, please move the bug back to Kate :)

Thanks for the tip and info. Much appreciated. I never tried that workaround
but it's fine, once you know it. Regarding KIO, I'm assuming this means "KDE
input/output" and that's where the fix has to happen?

Moving to KIO since that's where it's broken, we can't do anything about it in
Kate. You can search for `text*` and it will give you all matches.
