Search for 'UPC'

Searching for Organization name 'UPC' does not return any records, while a record with that name exists:

"Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC)"

@rsirvent thanks for reporting this.
I know the reason why - they way the search is currently configured is to tokenize and index to match the start of the string, but also includes punctuation. This means the inital "(" is preventing the match. If you use a wildcard and search for ?UPC you'll see the results appear.
I've discussed with Finn a few times - changing the configuration to use a different tokenizer that treats punctuation as white spaces, or combing tokenizers to cover both cases. I don't think it's a huge job and will do some experimenting today.
