1198: Full Text Search with period BUG#5004 [Fixed 1201]

Not sure if this is a feature or a bug.

I have a lot of "Traditional" tracks in my database. I identify them with the Composer tag, e.g. "Trad.", "Trad. English", etc.

Advanced Search (Composer:Trad.) works fine.

FTS, either "Trad" or "composer:Trad" works fine until I type a ".", eg. "composer:trad." at that point the incremental search drops from a lot of tracks to None.

So, is the FTS SongText encoding stripping out punctuation, specifically periods?

Here's another one. Try to search (FTS or Advanced) for artist "B.B. King". Closest I can get is to search for artist:king and then sort by artist.

And yeah, I know I could use the artist node, but, I was using / testing search.

-------
Advanced Search is ok, just FTS has problems. I had some tracks set as Artist="B. B. King" (extra space in tag)
