I believe that this functionality was working previously, before Baloo was used
(so, Nepomunk?).   For example, I had a folder full of file names like:

quiz1_w2014
quiz1_f2012
quiz3_w2011
quiz1_w2014

I used to be able to just search for "w2014" and get all the relevant quizzes. 
 The way that search is now implemented is almost useless (in my opinion).   It
is very frustrating that search worked perfectly before but now with baloo
there is this huge regression in functionality.   I've pretty much given up on
searching from within dolphin, and use the terminal to " find . -n *w2011* -R"
which is certainly not very handy, but at least it works.

As other people have mentioned, searching with wildcards works perfectly in
other operating systems.
