Description
When searching for "First Last" no results.
When searching for "alias" no results.
The message I'm looking for has "[RESULT][VOTE] New committer for Project: First Last(id:alias)" which clearly should match but it does not.
Could the search or indexing be changed to ignore the "(" and ")" and ":" and perhaps other punctuation characters?
Specific problematic messages available if you DM me. Thanks.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the searches for "First Last" and "alias" using the example message from the issue, then trace the search or indexing entry points. Done means those searches match messages containing parentheses, colons, and other punctuation as described.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
