Description:
At forge.mysql.com/worklog, I try to search for "XML" in "Title and Description".  I get no results.  However, if I browse worklog tasks , I see item wl#1397, "XML -> SQL".   This should have matched my search.

How to repeat:
Search worklog for "XML" in "Title and Description"

Thank you for a problem report.

This is due to the server having ft_min_word_len = 4, so the fulltext indexes aren't matching stuff 3 characters or less...

I will work on a workaround for smaller words.

Fixed in r527.  The fix adds a check for words less than 3 characters long and implements a slower LIKE clause if found.  Not the best, but it works.
