      Create a collection foo with a record: {{ { line: "what the hell" } }}. Create full text index for line Do the queries as listed in description.

      Real world example of issue: searching the phrase what the renders no results. Searching "what the" also renders no results. However, searching "what the hell" finds results.

      It seems that quite simply, dropped words are not indexed at all, so even when you do an explicit search (ie, quoted phrase) you will always receive 0 results.

      I am reporting this as a bug as I'm unsure if this was intentional. If it was, then this is an enhancement request to either:

      1. Let us disable or otherwise configure the drop words for a specific language
      2. Enhance indexing to handle this.
