           Summary: CirrusSearch: Using * should search exact matches, not
                    stemmed matches
           Product: MediaWiki extensions

CirrusSearch: Using * should search exact matches, not stemmed matches.  When a
user uses something like * in their words they expect to match terms their own
way.  It doesn't help that Elasticsearch/lucene/whatever doesn't analyze fuzzy
query terms which can cause "*chokolade" not to match "schokolade" because the
stemmer has removed the "e" from the end of the word.
