SUGG: Bring back "exact()" modifier

I've come across a number of searches recently where I wanted a mix of exact and "all forms" search terms, and found it frustrating that I could not do this, as far as I know.

I'm sure this is already in the suggestions database, but could I add another vote?

Thanks
Richard

exact() in L3 is the same as nostem() and case() which may not be what you intend if "Match all word forms" applies to other terms i.e. you might want a nomatchall() with case insensitive matching.

I was being lazy Yes, bringing back all the terms: exact, nostem, case would be welcome.

It was more to do with the ability to affect individual search terms with modifiers, rather than select one setting for the whole query.

Understand. But the other terms will be affected by the Search menu settings of Match Case and/or Match All Word Forms.
