# Resolve aliases when searching for people

* tags: bug

We only index canonical names of people using the known aliases. Hence, when searching for people's names, we must also resolve the names in the query before running the search.

This is best done by using a custom xapian field processor for the relevant search prefixes such as creator:, lastupdater: and assigned:.
