It works for me.

But it depends on what you mean.
If you search for "212345" it is searching for that text string. It does not do any special handling for numbers it handles it as a string for text.

Maybe some of the other option there need to be checked.. case sensitive / whole words / text type (ascii/unicode/...)

Anyway.. I works for me. And it is hard to fix if I cannot recreate the issue.
But if you can create a file where the case is reproducible then I might be able to to fix it.
