Currently, the default is Starts with...
A more useful default would be Contains...

I know what you mean.  This is one of those places where performance considerations come into play.  "Contains" is a MUCH more expensive query.  In a large, busy Salesforce environment that query could take quite a long time which is why we set it up to not be the default.
