The Search feature in macOS v8
I have no choice to upgrade to v8 from v7 since 1P7 are abandoned. Anyway, despite of the safari integration frustrations, I don't understand why the search feature is such a cripple in macos app.

1P_Ben Thanks, so, it means the "Search" feature, will actually search items by "startsWith" actually?
Yes, I can confirm now, it looks like the search results are returned based on "startsWith", even I use non-english chars.
Not sure why and how this feature has been defined in 1P8, it sounds very unreasonable. It's not in this way in 1P7, it's not even in this way in ios version, since I use same words in iOS, I can get the results I want.
Or if you are considering performance (but I am not sure why we need to, since it's fine in 1P7), can we get full results if user select the last option "Show all matching items?", for the quick list, those can be items in a quicker manner, but if we select showing all matching items, can we have the feature as in "find" feature?
