Hmm, that ain't gonna work. wildcard for sql is % … but even with that it 
doesn't bring correct results.

I got one result for search w/o wildcards, but point taken. The reason why you 
get so many results with the wildcard is because of all the matches for 
"existent", "exists", "existing" and other variants. I would argue that this is 
not what you always want, but yeah, that's for another discussion.

Yes, this is currently the only know workaround.

Backward compatibility.

Not me, but I would be interested in hearing about that too.
