Right, that's what I mean.  For example:

   BuzzWordsMatch /ABC\-\d+/

so any word indexed or searched would not be split up by wordcharacters
if it matches that pattern.  So:

   ABC-1234

would get indexed as is (instead of being converted by Wordchars to
"abc" and "1234").

I think it would still be converted to lowercase, though (abc-1234).

I would not that that too hard to add to the code.  Requires a change to
the index file format, though.
