*** Original post on bio 2213 as attmnt 2937 at 2013-10-10 21:57:00 UTC *** A small tweak to the current newtab search to return e.g. "#instantbird" when filtering on "instant", as a stopgap until bug 955585 (bio 2146). Also makes some minor performance improvements.

*** Original post on bio 2213 at 2013-10-10 21:59:24 UTC *** Do you think we should replace the substring(1) by a specific check for channel prefixes?
*** Original post on bio 2213 at 2013-10-10 22:02:56 UTC *** What about just using contains?
*** Original post on bio 2213 at 2013-10-10 22:07:53 UTC *** What about splitting on word boundaries instead of \s+?

*** Original post on bio 2213 as attmnt 2938 at 2013-10-11 14:53:00 UTC *** Uses a short hardcoded list of special characters that will be ignored. I don't think we need do anything more elaborate until we improve search in general (and match all substrings, but rank differently when the match is at the beginning of the string, etc similar to the awesomebar).

*** Original post on bio 2213 as attmnt 2939 at 2013-10-11 15:47:00 UTC *** Flo wanted to keep the \s due to the possibility of unbreakable spaces. He explained to me that the reason for the extra "c.lowerCaseName.startsWith(aFilterStr) ||" check in the existing code was to match search strings containing spaces. This seems to me like a workaround for a proper AND so I implemented that instead.
