Fix the poo by covering it with some gloss paint :-)

Has anyone actually tested this - case sensitive completions how
*stupid* is this when the search is m//i
Also it will NOT let you enter "AJAX" you get AjAX - an irritation.

Regarding the "defective" search engine. Has anyone noticed that
searchby "all" and "author" often gives the same results. Try it
with "ajax".
