🔖 Feature description

Documentation suggestion, from foureyedsoul#4224 in Discord

I wonder if it would be worth mention that behavior more explicitly in this example?

Something like "It will automatically recognize spaces in search strings, without the need for extra search boundary indicators."? Adding the word "space" somewhere in this behavior description will help anyone searching for "space" / "whitespace" / etc in the documentation. Personally, searches are often how I first approach documentation… the law of conservation of energy and all that. 😉

✔️ Solution

Add something like the above text to:
