Description

The ​Field lookups documentation doesn't mention that exact is the default behavior. You have to go to a different ​introduction page to get this information, which isn't intuitive.

The reference page should include at least as much as the intro. Indeed, the intro says, "The database API supports about two dozen lookup types; a complete reference can be found in the field lookup reference."
