**automated message**
Thanks a lot for reporting this bug and contributing to OpenERP. Unfortunately the OpenERP Web Client project is not going to be developed further after the 6.0 series. As of 6.1 a newer and better web frontend known as the OpenERP Web project[1] will be available.
Our R&D developers normally work in Launchpad to fix bugs for the next release, but there will be no next release for the current OpenERP Web Client. As our resources are limited, all further R&D efforts from the Web team are dedicated to finish the new 6.1 OpenERP Web project[1].
This bug will be closed as "Won't Fix" to show that R&D won't be able to work on it.

Bugs affecting customers in production of course continue to be handled via the OpenERP Enterprise (OPW) maintenance service, and this is the recommended way to have them corrected directly in the 6.0 LTS stable branch.
You can find more details about all of this in the FAQ of our Bug Management Policy documentation[2].

If you are interested, you should soon be able to beta-test the new
OpenERP Web 6.1 (this will be announced on OpenERP Community channels).

Thank you for your contributions and for your understanding!

Title:
  [Search] Many2one combobox implies discrete search for particular
  resource, but does substring search instead

Status in OpenERP Web Client:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  In the webclient, the search field for a many2one field provides a
  combobox with names of discrete resources, as well as a selection icon
  to select a discrete resource in a popup window. At the same time, the
  search field does allow the user not to select a discrete resource but
  leave his raw input as a search criterium. The latter implies a
  substring search, which is indeed the case. The former case, in which
  the user does select a single resource as a search criterium strongly
  implies a search on a uniqe resource. However, in this case the
  performed search is a substring search as well.

  Example:

  In my database, I search for partners in the Netherlands. Once I start
  to type something like 'Nethe', the combobox offers me the choice
  between Netherlands and Netherlands Antilles. If I select
  'Netherlands' from the dropdown options or select this resource
  through the selection icon, I would expect the resulting partners all
  to reside in this country, but instead I get partners in the
  Netherlands Antilles as well, because Netherlands is a substring of
  Netherlands Antilles.
