Pat, I love Thinking Sphinx and I appreciate everything you've done
for Rails.

Having said that.... for the love of god, please don't set defaults
like this.  I didn't even know what was going on.  I'm doing an import
on hundreds of thousands of records and the full-text search of Sphinx
makes this so much faster.

But apparently you're setting the morphology to "stem_en" as a
default.  I can't find anything about this behavior and it took me
forever to figure out that this was the actual issue.  I have spent
hours trying to figure out why "AB0E" also matched "AB0S".  In fact, I
didn't even realize this was an issue until after I developed
everything, and began to QA my records.

Sweet jesus :(  Please organize this in a way that is either obvious
or painstakingly documented.

I had another issue with TS, where I was trying to group results based
on certain columns (via has_many and h_m:through).  Such a nightmare.

I really appreciate your work, but there needs to be some kind of
emphasis on documenting various assumptions before implementation.  Or
maybe, at least, just have:

rake ts:in --no-stems



Sigh.
