fixed in 20011114

Behaviour:
  1) pattern does not include any periods:
     Same behaviour as usual (all packages match, prefix matching of type).

  2) pattern includes periods:
     The last period is picked as the splitting point
     between qualifier and type.

     The implicit prefix matching if 1) is turned off.
     This allows to paste a FQTN and to see only one matching result (or
     none).     

     To see for example all types of java.lang, the pattern would
     be "java.lang.*".
