so, just to finish this small issue (with an unnecessary growing
thread), we'll:

a) keep current behavior?: 'word1 ; word2; word3 or word4'

b) or change all ';' by 'or'?: 'word1 or word2 or word3 or word4'

All this discussion have confused me a bit... but I can commit a
'fix' for (b) if it's a consensus...

PS: Sorry for this kind of noise... :-(
