I think you'd probably say "yes" here...

As you've found with your baloosearch tests, baloo does not do wildcard
searches. If you search for "amp" you will get results for "ample" but not
"example" (so, you can think of the search being for "amp*" but not "*amp*").

Dolphin uses the Baloo index when it thinks it can, so you'll get the same
behaviour in Dolphin. If Dolphin sees that Baloo is disabled or not indexing
the folder it's in, it does it's *own* search.

The goofy part is that Dolphin's "own search" seems to pick up substrings;
effectively an "*amp*" search.

Balancing this, Baloo does recognise word boundaries so if you had done your
tests with "default-testfile" files, "baloosearch test" would have found them.

There's a bit of discussion in Bug 452628...
