I have been using this patch ever since I created the ticket (basically
simply to avoid exhausting memory on the server when a user happens to
type "n*" or something else that expands to a _lot_ of terms in my
index).

If there is interest in including it, I have kept it up to date in my
local repository and can submit a fresh patch that should apply cleanly
to trunk.

If there are things I should adjust in the patch to have it included in
Xapian proper, don't hesitate to let me know :-)
