Yes, "doesn't contain" operator has always excluded a whole string contained within the text field
To exclude multiple values users can use 'doesn't equal' operator

So yes, to exclude multiple sub-strings users need to use:
genre: does not contain - 'string1'
genre: does not contain - 'string2'

rather than
genre: does not contain - 'string1;string2'

Moved for Tweaking in MM5 and assigned to Jiri to triage the best approach due the changes in Advanced search UI we made in MM5.

It was strange (unexpected) that just changing Drop down from 'Contain' to 'Do not contain' behave differently.

Not too important imho, but yes, I'd say that {genre: does not contain - 'string1;string2'} should exclude all tracks with at least one of the genres.
