A big gap for me right now is the lack of "exact" searches, conventionally done using quotes. For example, searching for I fell off the roof finds occurrences of any and all of those words.

If I want to search only for the exact phrase, I would expect to enter "I fell off the roof", but this appears to search for literally the word 'if' prefixed with a leading quotation mark, and also for the word 'roof' followed by a trailing quotation mark, and also the word 'fell', etc. 😬

Are exact-phrase searches on the roadmap? Maybe for v2? 👀
