Description
Key is unique.
First case:
Foo.objects.filter(key="ABCD")
>> [<Foo: Foo object>]
Foo.objects.filter(key="A")
>>[]
Second case (Xapian) , after doing rebuild_index:
sqs = SearchQuerySet()
search = sqs.models(CertificationApplicant)
search.filter(key="ABCD")
>> [<SearchResult: foo.foo (pk=62)>] #only one it's ok
search.filter(key__exact="ABCD")
>> [<SearchResult: foo.foo (pk=62)>] #only one it's ok
search.filter(key=Exact("ABCD"))
>> [] #WHY no result ???
search.filter(key="A")
>> [<SearchResult: foo.foo (pk=62)>, [<SearchResult: foo.foo (pk=124)>, u'...(remaining elements truncated)...']
search.filter(key__exact="A")
>> [<SearchResult: foo.foo (pk=62)>, [<SearchResult: foo.foo (pk=124)>, u'...(remaining elements truncated)...'] #WHY multiple results ????
search.filter(key_exact=Exact("A"))
>> [] # WHY ?
I would like same behavior of "Foo.objects.filter(key="ABCD") " but with Xapian.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Foo.objects.filter and SearchQuerySet.filter examples with xapian-haystack 2.0.0, Django 1.4.2, and Python 2.7.1. Trace how key, key__exact, and Exact("...") are translated for the Xapian backend. Done means exact filtering matches Django queryset behavior without returning partial or multiple results.
