[Kde-pim] Searching using substrings

[Vishesh Handa]

How are you performing the search?

By default virtuoso only searches through the exact word, which is how most
search engines operate. We can obviously change this behaviour by adding a
'*' at the end of the expression.

If you point me to how you were performing the search, I can have a look at
the relevant code and maybe fix it.
