PageSearch fails if query string has "/" or "(" in it.

We've noticed an issue with PageSearch. We need to be able to search our documents via their symbol code. It is in a separate field and can contain some special characters like: "TD/L.382" or "TD(XII)/PC/1". Apparently, the "/" and "()" characters will make the search fail, returning nothing. The PageSearch control configured as such: The question is what's causing this? Can it be fixed and if yes, how? Would escaping these characters somehow work? Could we overwrite the PageSearch control to do our own method and how? Thanks!
