*** Bug 1350 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Re-reading this, no longer sure what is asked is what I think... I was thinking of the search command of the web GUI: based on a search string, it returns artists, albums and songs matching the string. The quoted message seems to indicate what we're after are SONGS containing a string or having an artist or album containing that string. I am not sure of the use case. Why also filter by ID? I am confused.
Closing for now. Re-open or new bug for extensions to "search" as implemented in SVN 6948.
This bug appears to have been fixed in the latest release! If you are still experiencing this problem, feel free to reopen the bug with your new comments and we'll have another look. Make sure to include the version number of the software you are seeing the error with.
