Note: The merging of all qualities into one category in API v2 mean more results likely to be cropped. The vendor switched to this method from their (imho, better) original of listing category numbers. It was suggested that clients add and maintain all possible search strings that signify as quality. However, this would still trigger misses, introduce other issues, plus add needless non-standard API complexity. Conclusion; as designed, SG will utilise other configured providers when this one fails to hit targets, this provider should not be configured as a sole provider.
Unfortunately some of the old code I modified is still not 100% clear to me.. so I can't really oversee if this will work. That's why I suggest, this should be extensively tested, before merging into master!
I broke backlog searching.. Should be working again.
Tested, and seems to be working fine!
