Filter on component strings when viewing a backlog #215

When viewing a backlog of a project with a Scrum-based 'process', I have a field with a multivalue control and a ticket with contents:

Filtering for the latter component returns nothing in the filter

It's not a substring filter - it just filters from the front. This might just be an Azure DevOps issue.

I believe this issue is partially related to #217

From my prior testing I believe the Azure DevOps filtering is a word-match, so spaces become very important.

Where I have data selected that looks like "Option A;Option B;Option C;" (no spaces after semi-colon) I can only filter on "Option A" - options B and C won't match as they are treated as the middle of the word.

Where the data is space separated "Option A; Option B; Option C;" I can filter equally on all three.
