Default change of search

can we have it changed to minimum of 3 letters, and exclude common words like 'the' and 'and'.

my specific search is "ap2 diff ap1". while i've found the info i need (google), it'd be useful to use the s2ki search as google just pointed me here anyway!

another search related question:
can registered users please have the search flood control removed; one 'not found' search result means a 25second wait untill we can search again.
"Flood control is enabled. Please wait at least 20 seconds before attempting to search again"

i can understand this for unregistered users (ie: public bots), but imo s2ki registered users shouldn't abide by this restriction.

Members don't have a search flood control, Guests do. Another benefit

I've changed the configuration to 2 letter minimum search term and rebuilt the indexes.
