Comment (by dkg):

 Sorry if my example was notmuch-specific, i'm not sure of the boundaries
 between xapian and notmuch here.

 But yes, i'd be happy with any lower-hanging fruit that xapian could
 handle.  helping users get better search results is often an iterative
 process, particularly if they're still struggling with basic syntax.

 Notmuch should be able to raise the concerns about any mistakes made at
 the notmuch layer, but if xapian could report or suggestion fixes at its
 own syntax errors, that would be a great model for notmuch to build on top
 of.

 thanks for considering this!
