Description
With WordPress 4.6 (was already in 4.5 actually), there’s a problem when you wanna put a link and search published articles. Here, if you search “iOS 9“, every article with iOS 9 in the title show up. Although, if you search “iOS 9.3.5“, nothing is found. Same thing with an apostrophe and maybe other punctuations.

- Priority normal → low
- Version 4.6 → 4.5
I did some testing. This has been fixed in the new block editor, but is still happening in the Classic Editor.
The problem happens anytime a period is used in the search field. Even when text follows the ., an AJAX call is not initiated. Looks to have been introduced in [36384] (see #33301) and the line causing this is here.
Since this only affects the Classic Editor, I'm marking as low priority. But I don't think it would hurt to fix this bug if someone wants to own it.
I actually noticed this earlier on Make/Core, making links to things about 4.7. Thanks for the ticket!
