space added in front of search using "-" (dash)

Anytime a "dash" is used in the "search" box, that is "-" is used then a space is placed in front of the "-". i.e. "add-on" becomes "add -on" or "x-notifier" becomes x -notifier" and of course "x-notier add-on" becomse "x -notifer add -on".

Enclose it in double quotes to search literally, otherwise a dash means not.
