Description:
this will be demonstrate searchin for bug 7658 (it serfore relates on this bug beeing active)

perform the following advanced search:

Find bugs with any of the words  	 	<leave empty>
Return "ALL" bugs 
Sort by "ID"  "Descending"
no Boolean mode
Return only bugs with status 	"Active"
Severity 	"Not a feature request"	
Catecory "Server"
OS 	<empty>
Version 	"4"
Assigned 	<empty>
Date 	"the beginning"

this will not return 7658

modify the above search and limit to bugs containg the word "optimize"

this will suddenly return the bug

this bug might depend on the current set of data, but then I have no way to freeze that

How to repeat:
see above

Suggested fix:

sorry the above is wrong, the 7658 is both times not in the result set.

this is only a bug if selecting "Server" as catecory should return the subcategories like replication, compiling, ....

in which case it should be listed

Constraining a search by category only searches that specific category, not any others, even if they appear to be sub-categories. (The categorization is not truly hierarchical, that is just an artifact of how the category names are configured.)
