Date: Fri, 30 Sep 2011 17:03:52 -0400 [thread overview]

The suggestion is that if you type `C-x b SPC foo TAB', you will then
see all buffers that have names containing the substring "foo", no
matter whether they have a leading space or not.
That seems like a reasonable thing for substring completion to do
on buffer names. I think substring completion should not be enabled
for buffer names by default, since it is too wild in its behavior.
