Change search algorithm for solutions

Change search algorithm for solutions

When searching for a solution the results contain every Solution that contains ANY of the search words, so the more precise the search terms are the less accurate the results are (result set is too large).

For instance if you search for 'mobile phone add mail account' the search results contain every solution that contains any of those words and are too numerous to be useful. It is more helpful to just search on 'mobile' and sift through the Solutions returned.

It would be much more useful if the addition of more search terms 'refined' the results list instead of expanding it.

At the very least, would it not be possible to 'score' each result found according to the number of search terms that it matches and present them in descending order?  (So in the above example results with a score of 5 would be listed first).

Ideally, also provide the ability to alter the behaviour of the search by being able to set options at runtime. E.g. 'Match ALL' or 'Match ANY'.
