I've done alot of practical testing with it now, and it seems that the
exact phrase query might be overrated.  So far, the already-available
query types have sufficed.  I'll let the client to even more testing, but
if they don't really need it, I can't justify spending time on
it.  Obviously :)

As I said, if the client blahblablbalbah, then I'll try a fishbowl
proposal.  Thanks, anyway, though :-).
