I just gave this a go and seems to not have given predicted results:

Now any search I perform that doesn't include a comma returns 0
matches and any search I perform that includes a comma resturns
exactly 1956 results. Every time. I posted a similar question over on
the Sphinx forum awhile back and got the following reply:

    Use phrase_boundary and phrase_boundary_step features to make
commas increase the word
    position, and then perform a proximity search.

    Eg. set phrase_boundary=, and phrase_boundary_step=100 and then
search for "dear love"~50

I tried that as well (by setting those in sphinx.yml) but every search
I run that ends in "~50 returns 0 matches.

Any other ideas?
