Yes, this would be nice, wouldn't it. Adding a "good words" list
isn't so bad--you check it quickly before tossing the word. The
difficulty of your request is that it would change the way documents
are parsed--right now they're split up into words, so you'd have to
say "wait, we just saw 'committee,' did we have 'IT' just then?" You
could still do it, but it would be a bit more complex.
That's not to say I'm not filing it in my "ideas" box...
