Hi Nils --

I don't think this is directly supported, but it seems like a good addition.

Another approach might be to expand to the synonyms in the query
rather than in the index.   That is, expand a search for
[examplification]  to [example OR examplification], which should
already highlight correctly.

You'd be trading a less efficient query for a small index.
