Good point.  I would then suggest replacing the (score > 0) with (base_score > 0) to 
cover the backlink_factor and date_factor additions performed on lines 1432 and 1443 
of Display.cc.

Is there a consensus on this issue so that this could be committed to code (using 
base_score comparison)?

I don't think you need to worry about negative scores. IIRC, there's 
another part of Display.cc that sets all negative scores to 0.

I'll agree with you that I don't see many reasons to keep documents 
with a score of 0 in the result list, this change won't have quite 
the effect you want. Keep in mind that the score also includes 
factors like backlink_factor and date_factor that aren't word related 
and can give a document a non-zero score even if the word score was 0.
