Thanks for the feedback! The search algorithm is very basic right now, and will definitely change to address the "exact match" scenario. The paragraph was a mistake in the template that should be fixed shortly...
I really like how you can actually use regexp to search though: "position" vs "^position".
How about changing the search box heading to something more instructive, more instant, like "Begin typing a CSS property". Also, I'd like to see filters like :hover.
