Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-3846:
--------------------------------------------

This is a nice benefit of the path-based best-first search (in the patch): it's 
easy to use a custom cost matrix.  The cost can also be context-dependent too 
(based on past matched characters, though not [easily] future ones).

We don't need to explore that now, before committing this, but it's nice that 
we'll have the freedom to do so later.

Re-ranking definitely adds cost since you'll have to pull a bigger N.  I think 
we'll likely have to somehow combine the cost and "isFuzzy" into a single cost, 
during the search, not after (reranking).  Not sure how to do that yet...

> Would be nice to have a suggester that can handle some fuzziness (like spell 
> correction) so that it's able to suggest completions that are "near" what you 
> typed.
> As a first go at this, I implemented 1T (ie up to 1 edit, including a 
> transposition), except the first letter must be correct.
> But there is a penalty, ie, the "corrected" suggestion needs to have a much 
> higher freq than the "exact match" suggestion before it can compete.
> Still tons of nocommits, and somehow we should merge this / make it work with 
> analyzing suggester too (LUCENE-3842).
