The suggestion to make it work like compound words is still a good one,
ie given wikipedia.org you'd get back
host wikipedia.org
host-part wikipedia
host-part org
not just the "host" token as at present.
Then the user could decide whether he needed to index hostname
components or not, by choosing whether to forward hostname-part
tokens to a dictionary or just discard them.
If you submit a patch that tries to force the issue by classifying
hostname parts as plain words, it'll probably get rejected out of
hand on backwards-compatibility grounds.
