Comment (by westonruter):

 @ocean90: I love how the filter now matches against both the widget name
 and description, and how the order of the terms is irrelevant. Great idea
 on combining multiple lookahead patterns.

 I found two issues:

 1. The replacement of spaces was not done globally (needs `/ /g` instead
 of `' '`), so only the order of the first two words was not significant
 2. The search term wasn't escaped for RegExp meta characters, so
 JavaScript errors could be thrown.
