Given these tasks,

Inputting the command findtasks AI does not return tasks with dashes in them, such as "AI-generation". image.png

This may inconvenience some users that prefer to use dashes in their tags, such is the standard used by Google and other companies internally.

Team's Response

We believe that this is not a priority issue, or am even considering not implementing this due to other problems it could cause.

For example, if you want to search for the exact word "in", partial search would return many other words that consists of "in" in the word which may not be ideal.

The UG also states that only full words can be matched and there is no partial matching so they would not be misinformed and think that what they are looking for does not exist on the system so it would not cause a major issue at the moment.

This could be improved in future iterations. For example we can consider adding both options to allow users to do both partial or full search.
