ATO learns to search by exact whole word

Fuzzy search is forgiving, which is usually what you want — until it isn’t. When you know exactly what you’re looking for, forgiveness becomes noise.

ATO v1.7.0 adds an escape hatch: wrap a query in double quotes and search switches from fuzzy matching to exact whole-word matching.

"burger" matches complete words and phrases only — tasty burger, BURGER (case-insensitive), and URL-delimited hits like shop.com/burger/menu.
Subsets are rejected: no match for hamburger, burgers, bu, or bu rger.
Every whole-word occurrence is highlighted.
Unquoted queries still use the existing fuzzy search.

The search placeholder now hints at the feature, so you don’t have to remember it’s there.
