Partial matching in "Lots and Serials" endpoints for BTS Trace API

It would be very useful if we could implement partial matching in the Lots and Serials endpoint(s) in the BTS Trace API. To be specific, we were thinking about the following parameters:

- lot_or_serial_id[]

- product_id[]

For our uses cases, this would come in very handy, as in many scenarios the end user doesn't exactly know the lot number of what they're trying to look for, but maybe only the starting/middle/end characters.

We're therefore looking for a pattern matching like *(search_term)*.
