Prior to 2.6 I had videos with the title "B&Q" and "M&S" obviously the ampersand is a problem when searching but this could be worked around by replacing the ampersand with an underscore. With 2.6 this no longer works and has replaced the "B&Q" tags to just "BQ" although the title remains as "B&Q" this makes searching of these videos for vistors a little tricky .. any suggestions?

Edit: I've also notice partial searching is no longer available i.e if "testing" is the title, the search term "test" will yield no results .. is this intentional? I really hate the new search, how can I keep 2.6 but use the 2.5 search, it was much better.
