Read what I said. They can use the standard index, then filter the results as a last pass.

I did read what you said. Imagine trying to search for

  [::]
as 8192kjshad09- suggested earlier in the thread. What standard index results are you going to filter? Since "[::]" isn't in the index, you won't have anything to go on. To do your back-tick really-verbatim searches, the index has to be enlarged.
Ah, sorry, I see what you mean.
