            Bug ID: 426560
           Summary: Musicbrainz search only allow exact matches
           Product: tellico
           Version: 3.3.3
          Platform: Compiled Sources
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: ro...@periapsis.org
          Reporter: cisfru...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When using the musicbrainz search to add an entry in for a music collection all
the searches are sent to the server in quotes meaning that an exact match is
searched.
This is fine for title and artist search if you remember exactly waht to search
for but it will produce no results for a partial key.
The Keyword searh mode also send the query in quotes so is not possible to mix
artist and album name in the search.
This is just a minor inconvinien in the search but it may be easly solved by
removin the quotes for the search at least for the Keyword search mode.
If instead this is the intended behavior it may be good to allow the raw search
that seems to be supported in src/fetch/musicbrainzfetcher.cpp but not allowed
in src/fetch/musicbrainzfetcher.h

P.S. Thanks for tellico!


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a music collection
2. Add new entry from internet
3. select keyword search 
4. search for "lily allen - no shame"

OBSERVED RESULT
No results are returned.

EXPECTED RESULT
Some result are found.
