For example, when the WooCommerce package should be updated (according to WordPress updater page),
one sometimes has to trigger an update on wpackagist.org, otherwise composer update fails.
In order to update the package, one has to first find it on wpackagist.org.
However, the current search finds all kinds of packages that contain the searched keyword woocommerce in their names.
It would be nice if the exact woocommerce package name could be used.

Edit: As a workaround I triggered a package refresh, copied the Fetch-command from Developer Tools, pasted it into Developer Tools console, adjusted the package name and send it manually.

@strarsis I'm not sure this should be the default, especially as one previous request was basically the opposite: full text index / less exact matching on package titles.

I guess an 'exact' checkbox on the search form would do the job?

@NoelLH: Yes, a checkbox would be nice.
