Details
Bug 529584 (I think) implemented the address auto complete "contains" in the TB31 release version.
There has been considerable user push back with this change requesting a reversion to the older Begins with search. Given we appear to have two quite valid use cases a user configurable option to choose would be an ideal outcome.
Like many users I am used to typing a single letter and getting a short list that contains what I want. Currently autocomplete is basically useless until a second or third item is entered. Even if this is not less efficient for the user, it appears so.

Begins with hits are prioritized after bug 970456, hopefully for the next esr.
