live log filtering breaks on '#' character

For example, if I want to filter on "Packet filter rule #25", I get no results.

By trial and error I have determined that it breaks when I enter the '#' character.

    The info you see in the log log is formatted, but the filter string operates on the raw data.

    The reason the "#" character doesn't work is that the character isn't used in the logs ar all. If you want to filter on packet filter rule 25, use fwrule="25" as a filter.
