--- Comment #9 from ttrovo <vle...@yandex.ru> ---
Thank you Nate Graham for you work on the best file manager for GNU/Linux, I
really appreciate your afford on fixing other issues I was complaining about or
following.

Related to this topic: a lot of other people and I have `baloo` completely
disabled (maybe not even installed) and Show Hidden Files set to always-on.

Can somehow we make search in Dolphin work as expected, more reliably? I mean
as Dolphin is great, it is more convenient to search in it compared to open
kfind in a separate window or use krusader manager. But **currently Dolphin
does not find files that are there**. Like imagine, I have this in the current
directory directory:
```
./.something/foobar.txt
./.foobar.txt
```
I see both items because I have always-on Show Hidden Files on all systems I
have ever used, including Windows.

But if I search in Dolphin for "foobar" it find nothing! 
Note that `Krusader`, `KFind` and `mc` work differently, well, almost ANY file
manager is able to find this files.

It would be great if this issue will be possible to address, because people are
really waiting for it for a long time. 

E.g.: here is a link to a popular reddit topic where people discuss search in
Dolphin and consider it to be "broken".
https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/smlevb/dolphin_search_doesnt_work_well_any_way_to_make/

Maybe the the issue should be considered a bug, as a lot of people really do
consider it that way. Almost nobody will say that it is not a bug not to find
files when they exist.
