Request literal search

[mark.cloyed]

Periodically, I find, and my clients find, the need to search the vault for a very specific piece of information.  In many cases, it is a file by name, but the search criteria will include delimiting characters, such as underscore and hyphen.  The results of a search generally include other files that are outside of my intent, but that match a part of the search criteria.  It would be very helpful to have a literal search that would find only file properties that contained that exact set of characters.  It would be useful, for example, to encase the characters in quotations, so that all the delimiting characters were evaluated at face value and not tokenized. 

Thank you,

Mark
