Searching debian website for substrings



Is it correct that the "search" page (search.debian.org) is limited to whole-word searches? If so, does there exist a way to search based on substrings? For example, lets say I want to find pages with the substring "vnc" in them. Then, this would match pages with the word "tightvncserver". Currently, the search interface will not find a page that has only the word "tightvncserver", but not "vnc" by itself. Would this simply be too expensive to perform, in terms of the processing required?
