Anders, sorry for that. I guess my testing was just wrong and since I received a complaint that the wildcard searches are hammering the LDAP search I assumed that there was indeed something wrong. I guess I should have done more testing before releasing the mvl with brown-paper-bag bug :-(.
I have just uploaded 2.0.7 with your fixes from wildcard branch. Thank you very much.
