filter in the app not working properly (or just confusing?) #34

I'm quite confused with how the filter works. At least it's not like the JTFE. 
Here's what I mean (I will distinguish between the 'filter' in the app and the 
JTFE in Winamp). I'll give you some examples which confuse me.

1. If I type : "velvet" the results are:
filter: Red Hot Chili Peppers - This Velvet Glove
JTFE: Red Hot Chili Peppers - This Velvet Glove

If I type: "velvet " (with the space at the end) the results ar:
filter: <none> (Result from above vanishes)
JTFE: Red Hot Chili Peppers - This Velvet Glove (still the same result)

First I thought, that the filter fails to find anything if you type a word 
followed by a space, which is indeed often the case.
But then I saw:

2. If I type the exact name of the playlist entry into the filter, for example
"red hot chili peppers - this vel" the entry is perfectly found.

so what's the matter?^^ I don't understand if there's some secret to the filter 
or if it's a bug

3. I have the title named "Ingrid Michaelson - Be OK [Acoustic Version]" in the 
playlist. It I type "acoustic" it's not found by the filter, whereas it is in 
JTFE. The filter finds it you type "[acoustic" (with the square bracket). 
Typing the bracket is pretty annoying and normally you forget that you have to 
do that.

could you please fix that or make it understandable?^^ Would be nice if you 
could also search album titles, which are embedded as tags. That means that if 
you filter for "By The Way" not only to get the one single song as result, but 
the entire By The Way album, even if the playlist entries are not entitled with 
the album name. (though actuall right now, the filter doesn't find anything at 
all if I type "by the way", though the playlist entrie is named "Red Hot Chili 
Peppers - By The Way". How is that possible???)

thanks for your time, mate!
