Super interesting approach, thanks for contributing it.

From what I see in your article, you used this for searching through mails, so I guess it works on a pretty decent volume of data, but just to confirm it: do you think it's viable on something like gitlab's multi-resources full text search? For reference, what is the size of this index for your mailbox? (assuming it's an usual contractor dev mailbox, with mainly lots of notification mails and discussions with daily customers)

PS: don't worry about other reactions, users have invaded our dev world, nowadays, the sad thing with having attractive salaries
