Description
Looking at khalendar/backend.py, I see, the reason for that is that my string 'xx' matches part of the UID which is surprising. I expected it to look at summary and description. I guess, it's not technically a bug as neither the command or the man page says anything but "Search for events matching".

Research direction
Start by reading the search-related code in khalendar/backend.py and compare it with the command and man-page wording, which currently only says “Search for events matching.” Define the intended searchable fields, then verify that searching for “xx” matches event summaries and descriptions without unexpectedly matching the UID.
