Great! You saved me another annoying message to this list... :) That's the way I would have tought at first. The only problem is probably that this approach seems to be computationally expensive. Isn't there into sa a function to invoke text-scoring rules on, say, a string? That would avoid running image conversions on simple cases, while still allowing it on complex ones.
