Upgrade StorageAdvanced Search is still broken
I've updated to 2.0b7.5 and the Advanced Search functionality is still broken! Didn't anyone read my analysis of the problem over in the "unexpected search results" thread? I explained exactly what was wrong over there.
When you set the search to match "any" of the criteria given, then every item in your library is matched. This is due to a hidden restriction in the code which limits the search to your local library and excludes group libraries. This restriction should always be ANDed to the search criteria, but selecting "any" causes it to be ORed to the list. As a result, every item in your library matches.
