I believe that 'context' searching still works, where 'context' refers to the oracle product that allows creation of domain indexes, whatever they are called now.

For instance {find this phrase} will find exactly what is in the curly braces.
There are and/or operators too, though I would have to look them up again.

What is really annoying with search is that Oracle may add other words to your search terms, and there is little you can do about it. The app tells you when this has occurred, but I don't think you can change the behavior.
