[confirmed] Beatmap search is only as precise as the first term

Problem Details:

Normal search boxes all over the web ensure that each result contains every search term. Osu's beatmap search (online and ingame) only ensures that each result contains the first term.

Searching for "test asdfasdfasdfasdfasdf" gives 16 results, while "asdfasdfasdfasdfasdf test" gives none.
Searching for "the" gives 1580 results, and searching for "the pick of destiny" gives the same 1580 results. Searching for "destiny of pick the" gives 36 results.

The results are sorted by some sort of relevancy metric which makes it a little easier, but I would still consider them incorrect. See t/326045 for the problem of Osu!Direct searches, which don't apply the sorting properly and can be almost completely unusable due to this issue and the sorting issue combined.

It might be intended, but if it is, I don't see why.
Confirming for now.
