Teach Command-T to take spaces in the needle as a strong hint #277

Closed wincent closed 2 years ago

At the moment we just ignore them (if ignore_spaces is set), but we could leverage the signal more directly. Putting a space before something is a very clear signal that the user expects to find it near a "boundary", so we could use that to make the scoring even more intuitive/responsive than it currently is.

Given the big rewrite for v6.0.x, I'm closing all older issues as there is unlikely to be anything significant happening on the 5-x-devel branch from here on[^patches]. Feedback issue for 6.0.x is here:

[^patches]: Patches and PRs would be welcome, but my personal efforts are going to be directed towards main.
