           Summary: search for multiple words at once
           Product: krunner
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: panel-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: majewsky gmx net


Version:            (using KDE 4.0.80)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

I would like to be able to enter multiple words at once like I do at Google. For example, let's assume I enter "Web browser". Currently, only results that contain the string "Web browser" are shown, but not results like "Webbrowser" and "Web-Browser" (these strings appear for example in the German localization I'm using).

Another desired behavior would be the ability to search in descriptions and in program names at the same time. Imagine someone is looking for Gwenview, but does only know that it is an image viewer with "wen" in the name. He could then enter "image wen" and find Gwenview. (If he only entered "wen", he would only find a big bunch of applications, esp. in German where "user" is "Anwender" and "program/application" is "Anwendung".)
