1.6.1 : Cannot enter string with spaces or '," chars anymore in search window

0693W00000BbOiPQAV.jpgFor some reason in the dialog box that appears when pressing control+H I cannot enter (or copy paste) search strings anymore than contain spaces, or ', or ", etc...

[azAZ09:\] still work (and probably a few others, i did not test them all

Is there some kind of option I somehow enabled to limit my search input chars (and why would anyone add such an option??) or am I running into some weird frustrating bug ?

Ok I think I get it, C/C++ search is limiting your search to certain C/C++ elements and spaces and '," cannot be part of these elements anyway (I thought it would search in .c/.h/.cpp/.hpp files). Very confusing.
