Description Todd Chambery CLA 2002-10-23 16:02:18 EDT
When typing the text entry box for the "Open a Type" dialog, the search engine
used to assume that a "*" was typed at the end of the search string.  This
behaviour seems to have changed in the 2.1 stream (kind of, since it still
assumes a "*" until another "*" is typed).

For example:
typing "fo"
finds
     foo
     food
     fountain
typing "f*o" 
finds
     foo

I like the implicit "*" on the end better:
typing "f*o" should find
     foo
     food
     fountain
