Mh, fuzzy search could be implemented as a new collection operator, but I am not sure the current DBMS we're using (SQLite) would be appropriate and effective for such operations. Our favourite smartest bearded lead developer is investigating a new storage backend, so maybe performance will allow that in the future.

I think what Apple did, in using full-featured but yet light enough PostgreSQL everywhere, just makes more sense.

Yammi has/had used XML as the storage backend, probably loading the whole "database" into memory, which obviously might sound a bit heavy on memory but is very fast (and I never saw memory problems with it).
The fuzzy search code it used is at http://yammi.cvs.sourceforge.net/yammi/kyammi/src/fuzzsrc... and is under the GPLv2 (but I guess Oliver might be open to relicensing if you need a different license).
