Reassigned to SBA.
SBA: When it was designed, the main purpose for similarity search was to find variants of lengish words, and not parts of sentences (several words). However, even the default "2,2,2+combined" looks tempting to look for phrases. Thus, I can accept this as a defect, but the Prio is P4. Reassigned to OS.
Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org".

This is not a defect. The scope is clear, and unchganged. So I classify this as enhancement.
