Thank you for the bug report!

This is a consequence of intentional behavior; many of the individual ways to search have character restrictions (often three characters, sometimes more) as the results are typically not useful with very short search terms. Only a small number, like applications that start with that letter (or pair of letters), are enabled for input of 1-2 characters.
