SUMMARY

Sometimes can not find a file in a subfolder using filename filter. This
depends of a search query.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a folder "find-test" and a folder "1" inside. Place "file3.txt" file
inside "1".
2. Go into "find-test" folder and open the search.
3. You can find this file using queries "file" or "txt", but can not using "3"
or ".txt".

OBSERVED RESULT

There is empty search result using some queries.

EXPECTED RESULT

This file should be in the results list

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.18.5
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.68.0
Qt Version: 5.12.8

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Some users told me that this is because of indexing is sometimes inconsistent
and recommend to rebuild filesystem index. I think it is rather dangerous
situation when user does not know about it. I would prefer to fully disable
indexing and make old style slow search file by file rather to miss the file I
need. If the issue is unfixable by design (i. e. "search resuls is not
guaranteed but searching is a fast" is by design), probably you could integrate
KFind into Dolphin's left sidebar instead of the default search? KFind finds
the file fine.
