This is surprising to me. Snowball introduces new homonyms, meaning it
will lump e.g. "management" and "manage" into one index entry. Thus,
I'd expect a handful of "false positives" (but usually not too many).

That's a "lossy index" (loosely speaking) and could be fixed by
post-filtering (instead of introducing another index, which in
most cases would seem a waste of resurces).

Is there no way in SOLR of filtering the results *after* the index
scan? I'd be disappointed!
