Hi all:

I have been poking at the Whoosh indexer for text search.

It turns out that it has a full query parser that can handle things
like:

  message and fred or george not peter

it also handles "quoted terms".

Currently backends/indexer_whoosh.py doesn't use the Whoosh query
parser.

We would need to modify the core code to pass quoted strings through
to the find backend when the Whoosh backend is being used.

Anybody have any feeling on how how much effort this is worth to
implement?
