Your syntax looks more flexible and prettier than with JOIN option. As
I understand there are three steps here. On each step a dictionary
return a lexeme and pass it to next dictionary. If dictionary return
NULL then the processing will interrupt.

With such syntax we also don't need the TSL_FILTER flag for lexeme. At
the current time unaccent extension set this flag to pass a lexeme to
a next dictionary. This flag is used by the text-search parser. It
looks like a hard coded solution. User can't change this behaviour.

Maybe also better to use -> instead of AND? AND would has another
behaviour. I could create the following configuration:

=> ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION multi_conf
    ALTER MAPPING FOR asciiword, asciihword, hword_asciipart,
    word, hword, hword_part
    WITH (german_ispell AND english_ispell) OR simple;

which will return both german_ispell and english_ispell results. But
I'm not sure that this is a good solution.

Of course if this syntax will be implemented, old syntax with commas
also should be maintained.
