This issue was first raised in Drupal 7 in May 2011 so it actually pre-dates Backdrop itself.
I raised it in the Backdrop queue 2 years ago and applied the first bit of the fix then. I've now finished porting the patch and it would benefit from testing/review.
EDIT: This has now been marked WFM and RTBC. Thanks Herb
Just to clarify it appears that the item: Fix Search for "On the Web" module, is about the search on backdropcms.org at https://backdropcms.org/modules
