Summary0015131: Search whole words only when in double quotes
DescriptionCurrently we search for words as prefixes, which is often fine, but sometimes not desired. I think that words in double quotes should be taken only in full. This way e.g. "be" won't return 'Beatles', but only items with the word 'be'.
TagsNo tags attached.

Tested 2183.
When it comes to Titles, this works as expected (i.e. Search for "be" only returns files with the whole word 'Be' or 'be'.

But when it comes to Artists, Albums, Composers, Genres, Videos, Playlists, that values that are returned include 'Be*' or 'be*' at the beginning of a word (rather than as a whole word). e.g.
Artist: Bebel Gilderto, Jeff Beck, etc.
Albums: The very best of...., Best of Glass Tiger, etc.
Composers: Frank Bednash
etc...

Tested on Artists, Albums, Composers, Genres, Videos, Playlists and now it works same as for titles in <2186.

Shouldn't this work the same way for contextual search?
e.g.
1 Navigate to Music > Artists
2 Type "be"
--> all Artists containing be (e.g. The Beat, Beck, etc.) appear rather than those with the word "be" (e.g. They Might be Giants).

Note: it's not a huge issue since in most nodes (except Albums) there are a limited number of entries.
