+/**
+ * Checks if the string other is contained in self on a per-character basis.
+ * In regex-speak that would mean "abc" is matched as /a.*b.*c/ (not anchored).
+ * This is a SEARCH function, NOT a MATCHING function!
+ * Namely the following options will be applied when matching:
+ * NSCaseInsensitiveSearch|NSDiacriticInsensitiveSearch|NSDiacriticInsensitiveSearch
+ * Additionaly this method might match even when it should not.
+ *
+ * @param other String to match against self
+ * @param submatches Pass the pointer to a variable that will be set to an NSArray *
+ * of NSNumber *s of NSRanges. This will only be the case if
+ * the method also returns YES. The variable will not be modified
+ * otherwise.
+ * Pass NULL if you don't care for the ranges.
+ * The object will be set to autorelase.
+ * @return YES if self contains all characters from other in the order given in other
+ * @warning This method is NOT thread-safe (probably), NOT constant-time and DOES NOT check binary equivalence
