I noticed, that sometimes you have to search with wildcards for a specific user (test*) and sometimes without them (test).
The result is both the same: testuser, testuser2

If you forget the * at the first case you get no result. If you put a * at the second case you also get no result.

Why is this so?

Thanks, Mike

The search system already adds a wildcard to the end, so when you enter user_name you are actually running a search on user_name*. Adding a * will lead to 0 results, since no user has a * in their nick.

To avoid confusion, can you stick a label near the edit box with a comment to that effect?
