The text entered in the DM search field is interpreted as a regular expression. That seems unintentional and may result in unexpected results, e.g. the preriod in ".foobar" won't look for a period but any character.

In my profile I had downloaded a file "healthwellness.xls", in 3.5 searching for ".ness" would match that file, but 3.5.2 did not.
