If you wanted to search for me in user search you'd have to type aspensniper exactly as it is. Not too hard, but what if you just knew my jsp name was "aspen" something, or if you had a user like our good friend Felipe, whose jsp name is Sharpppp and you can't remember how many "P's" are in the name, or a user with weird spelling, or numbers in the name. It's tough to remember exactly how the jsp name is spelled.
If we add a wild card feature to the search tool, such as an asterisk (which is commonly used in database search systems like Salesforce, Oracle, SAP, etc.) you could search by typing aspen* or *sniper* and it'd pop up everything that contains the word "aspen" or "sniper" making it easier to find the user you're trying to think of.
This is very useful in trading when you remember someone had an item you needed, but can't quite remember exactly how to spell their jsp name. Or if you delete a PM and realize you needed to reach out to them again, but couldn't remember exactly how to spell their jsp name, etc. Very functional imo.
Let me know what you all think.
