Oh, this is fixed alright and you can verify it by testing at
https://helponline.libreoffice.org/6.2/
Global (Shared) results are always included in the results of every module, but
otherwise the results are now limited based on the url fragment text/module/

At first, the "Index" text was replaced with "Index of chosen module", but this
resulted in translations that put the text in two lines, which is not good. I
guess a note could be placed under the pagination, so it does not matter how
many lines it takes.
