Comment #1 on issue 5875 by dhhwai: Search Box: space at beginning or at  
end of a search query should mean word's start or word's end
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=5875

The current summary description is not accurate: space does not  
mean "word's start" nor
"word's end".  It actually means: one or more successive whitespace  
characters (where the
space is) when searching.

For example, view this bug report page in Firefox and search  
for "ant)[SPACE]wha" and you
will actually find a result that spans 4 lines: ending "is important)",  
blank line, blank
line, starting "What is".  The space in the search matched the first line  
ending and 2 blank
lines before the start of the following line.

Space only seems to match word's start and word's end in the above URL  
because it just
happens to contain one individual word per line and the space was matching  
the end-of-line
and start-of-line whitespaces.

Summary should be updated to:
    Search Box: space in search query should mean one or more successive  
whitespace characters
