Well, some people asks for regular expressions, some people asks for
wild-characters, some people prefers other techniques.
In most cases people are satisfied with substring solution as it is right now.
In some special cases people thinks about more advance solution.
I believe that we should sort results according to relevance, e.g., if I write
open, then selectors called open should be first, then likely openOn:,
openWithSpec:, openVeryLongExplanation:, etc.
