OBSERVED RESULTS:
"There and Then" searches...
If Dolphin gives a simple prompt:
https://bugsfiles.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=137170
It will do a "there and then" search, calling "filenamesearch". Despite the
name,
"filenamesearch" can do either "Filename" or "Content" searches.
1...
If you are have clicked on "content", you will not get matches from the
filename.
This may not be what you expect.
2...
Content search is limited in comparison to baloo's search. You can
search through
text files but not documents. You will also not search xattr or
embedded (such as
EXIF or ID3) tags.
3...
You can search for parts of words, looking for "amp" will find you
"example" as
well as "ampersand". Wildcards as you might expect them to work, don't.
4...
Searches for the phrase "as is", which is straightforward and
predictable. You don't
get any "search logic", so looking for "one three" will not find "one
two three" or
"three one"
5...
If you are typing a search phrase, you will start getting shown matches
after typing
the first character.
6...
The recursive search follows symlinks. If you've set up links to
folders outside
your home directory, the search will follow them. This is probably the
expected
behaviour. You may find that files are "found" more than once.
7...
It can be slow
