Thanks, looks interesting. A couple generic comments, based on a quick
code review.
1) Can the extension be marked as trusted, just like fuzzystrmatch?
2) The docs really need an explanation of what the extension is for,
not just a link to fuzzystrmatch. Also, a couple examples would be
helpful, I guess - similarly to fuzzystrmatch. The last line in the
docs is annoyingly long.
It's not clear to me why we need a new module for this. Wouldn't it be
better just to add the new function to fuzzystrmatch?
Yeah, that's a valid point. I think we're quite conservative about
adding more contrib modules, and adding a function to an existing one
works around a lot of that.
