i don't mean the doc, i mean the webui can inform a user about this behavior.
or a little user doc inside webui would be nice
or write it as note under "advanced search" menu would be the easiest
i have added that information for my users now to
"view/theme/default/templates/search/popup.tpl"
<div class="control-group">
....
</div>
<p align="center"><?php print $text_wordlength; ?></p>
<div class="form-actions">
....
</div>
