Additional information

• Why it’s a bug: This may be seen as a feature request. When using Obsidian it clearly always felt as a bug. It’s not what I expect as a user especially because Obsidian usually provides many recommendations when searching files by typing [[ and then it’s weird when it doesn’t when searching properties. It also wouldn’t make sense when property names (of which usually exist less than filenames) have a more restrictive search algorithm than the one for filenames.
