Description

### Problem

Searching for "user" returns User Accounts:
![search-for-user](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2998569/149847684-c914933c-9b1a-4f9c-9eac-cf2aa0a24811.png)
Searching for "users" returns nothing:
![search-for-users](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2998569/149847705-a565d593-7fc0-4a1d-a652-4591d124d84b.png)

I often find myself typing the `s` at the end of `users`. When I do so, I get no search results.

I then have to hit backspace to delete the `s` because I have learnt that search only returns results when I type `user` with no `s`. At first I was very confused because I expected `users` to return results.

On Windows and Mac, searching for `users` in settings works as expected.

I think it would be reasonable for "users" to return the same search results as searching for "user".

(I am not 100% sure if this is the correct repo, so apologies if this issue has been opened against the wrong repo.)

### Proposal

Searching for "users" should return the same search results as when searching for "user".
