Reconfigure search fields away from exact-match to OR-based search

The Reports > Reports page global search box uses exact-match to find reports.

We have several reports that are titled First Touch Contact Create or Last Touch Deal Create or a variation thereof. To see the list and choose the report I need, I enter the search terms touch create, but doing this results in a 'No reports found' message.

 

touch create: no reports foundtouch create: no reports found

 

The same is true for the Reports > Dashboards global search.

Elsewhere on the site, e.g.  Automation > Sequences, the global search box uses an OR-based search and therefore is much more effective.

It would make search more effective to move away from exact-match searching and implement OR-based search sitewide.
