    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Cloud. Using JIRA Server? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Say I wish to search for part of a string, like "BasicCommand.java:150" in:

      org.netbeans.lib.cvsclient.command.BasicCommand.getFileEndingWith(BasicCommand.java:150)

      I should just be able to enter "BasicCommand.java:150" into the search box, just like in grep, mutt and every other sensible search system. In JIRA this doesn't work, because "word" searches are the default. I would need to append "" to the query. I think the "" should be implicit. If an individual word is really required, it specified with \<...\> or something.

      (Of course I'd also need to add "*" to the beginning of the term, which Lucene doesn't allow... JIRA's search is broken on many levels).
