0.96.4: search filter problem

XnView: MP 0.96.4 - 64 bit
OS: Windows 7 Pro 64bit

I use the search field on top of the file view to show only some image files, according to filenames.
The problem is that it also considers metadata (without an option to ignore it), so I'm getting wrong results too.
I'd prefer to avoid having to edit hundreds of downloaded files with unknown metadata in them..
Can you please fix this?

Effect: display bug

To reproduce:
1. in a folder add an image with a searchable name, e.g "correctpic.jpg".
2. add another image with a random name "sdfjsdf.jpg", but add "correctpic" to its metadata.
3. search "correctpic" and both files will appear.

Actual behaviour (bug): "sdfjsdf.jpg" is shown :bug:

Expected behaviour: "sdfjsdf.jpg" shouldn't appear. Or at least there should be a toggleable option to avoid metadata.
