Hi Sergei, I have used FT search on a collection of ~ 38'000 documents totalling 550 MB of data since 4.0.2. To my observation people have a strong tendence to search for a few words they expect to be found close together in the text.
As far as this is technically possible it would be helpful to give some extra relevance to those hits where the 'distance' between words is small.
