Steps to reproduce:

Example:
Subject contain #0020468
Then we search part of this text.

Actual results:

With Quickfilter:
#0020468 = > match ok
0020468 = > match ok
20468 = > match ok

With search:
#0020468 = > match ok
0020468 = > match ok
20468 = > No result

Expected results:

The regex of the general search does not look the same as that of the quick filter.
It should react and match the same results as the QuickFilter

quick filter searches strings, and thus substrings.

regular search finds tokens, full strings, and not substrings. for that you would need regex capability (bug 213567) or stemming accommodation bug 752844
