Search for exact strings #100

Description:

I'd like to be able to search for exact strings.

For example, right now I'm looking for the string "<internal tool> logging" in all our rooms. I know that logging is the exact word I want to match (it's actually the title of an internal bug and so likely to be cited exactly like that), but unfortunately the PostgreSQL full text search will stem logging to log, and this will pollute my result list with lots and lots of irrelevant matches like AudioLog, Log, Dateilog, Changelog, bash_log, dialog, Login, Logparser, ... which makes it practically impossible to actually find what I'm looking for.

I've attempted to quote loggging ("logging") to force an exact match, but that doesn't seem to have any effect.

Side note: searching for the URL of the bug report might lead to useful results, but unfortunately this also doesn't work (#3024).
