I guess I could do a bit of pre-processing, look for any words that are quoted, and search in a diff field for those

This is surprising to me. Snowball introduces new homonyms, meaning it will lump e.g. "management" and "manage" into one index entry. Thus, I'd expect a handful of "false positives" (but usually not too many). That's a "lossy index" (loosely speaking) and could be fixed by post-filtering (instead of introducing another index, which in most cases would seem a waste of resurces). Is there no way in SOLR of filtering the results *after* the index scan? I'd be disappointed! Regards -- tomás
