Details

I was searching for a bug that mentioned the shortcut key T and so did a search for:  Summary, contains all the words, T  -- which failed spectacularly due to all the summaries with "can't" and "won't" and "shouldn't".

It would be great if the "contains word" match didn't simply delimit a word based on an apostrophe -- better if apostrophe is counted as part of a word if it's both preceded and followed by a letter.  This would help searching for "T" "S" and even "D", and also some words like "can".

I guess this would be part of the indexing as well, not just the query. (?)
