Quick Add Next (Ctrl or cmd + d) behavior

#1

Hi all -

My issue is best summed up in these two images:


Quick Add Next (Ctrl or Command + D) does not add those tokens, instead it searches for ANY string that matches what I have selected.

Is there any way to change this behavior?

Quick Add Next has different behaviours depending on if the selection is empty or not when you first press it: if the selection is empty (i.e., just a caret), then it will expand the selection to the word, and only select whole words. If the selection is not empty when first used (e.g., you’ve already selected the ‘c’ in the above example), then it’ll search by substring.
