Steps to reproduce:
Visit http://identi.ca/search/people?q=hobo&search=Search

Expected behavior:
Produces a list including at least "hobo", "hobojoe", and "spacehobo".

Actual behavior:
Only "hobo" appears, suggesting that this isn't performing a substring search on the users. http://identi.ca/notice/437018 confirms this.

At http://identi.ca/search/people?q=hobo&search=Search today running 0.9.0rc2 that expectation is realised.

(AFAIR from tests relating to #2067 the fix/enhancement was effective 0.9.0rc2 but I can't say when.)

Sorry, I meant to say ''prior to'' 0.9.0rc2 …
