I have a question regarding ampersands in search queries where the query is a phrase....I am running 3.2.0b5 and have added & to the 'extra_word_characters' directive and removed it from the 'valid_punctuation' just as the docs suggest - I have redug the database but when I search for "women & governance" htsearch just hangs there forever and doesn't complete...browser times out.
The query you provide as an example seems to produce reasonable results with a 3.2.0b6 install. If possible, you should try upgrading. I don't recall the '&' problem specifically, but there were definitely some problems with parsing of phrase searches in some of the older betas. There are also a number of other known bugs in b5 that were fixed in b6.
