Description
Type: Bug
Search something in the global search with match case off, eg. wifi.
Expected results: All variants of wifi: WiFi, wiFi, Wifi, wifi.
Actual results: Nothing shows up.
Only when I search exactly for WiFi I get results back. If match case is off it should return all results regardess of capitalization. Only if match case is on I expect the results to be exactly how I typed.
