Thanks Emil and Danny. I think we can stay with the current search system. At least I now understand that there is a reason and it's not some random glitch. I have edited the MediaWiki:Nonefound text by adding "Words less than four characters are ignored" so users are given a clue. Perhaps that text should be the default?
