Details

It's been happening to me a lot lately where I don't autocomplete correctly because I'm only typing in a nickname as the first name. For example, if the person's name is Daniel Brown, I would like to be able to type Dan B and have it autcomplete against the real name. This happens a lot because many people put their full name in their identity which is what shows up in the collected address book, but go by their nickname which is what I expect to type. I think 4.x had the behavior I'm asking for.
