Summary0002187: Simplyfy searches and autocompletion
Description

Here in germany we have a lot of people with double surnames.
They can be chosen on marrige, or after adoption.
Basically someone can initially have surname "Vorfelder" and change it on marrige with someone with surname "Mayer" to "Mayer-Vorfelder" or "Vorfelder-Mayer".

When someone has known this person before the change of the surname, she will search for the old known surname by typing "Vorfelder".
But if the surname has changed to "Mayer-Vorfelder" she will not get a result.
So she has to know that the name has changed and has to search for "*Vorfelder".
From the view of the user this is not intuitive.

Therefore the default search should always search for substrings (== "${PATTERN}") in LDAP or DB fields.
This is especially true for autocompletion too.

TagsNo tags attached.

Try this patch:

    [fields addObject: CNField];

For GCS folders (database), it looks like it's already ok.
