OK for the first 2 patches,
but please don't remove that comment, it
explains something important, and there's no reason to remove it (or
many other similar comments we have throughout our code).
In that case, please can you explain it, and I can rewrite it so that its significance is more evident. As I said, it explains why something was changed in the past (which is useful information in a commit message) rather than how or why the current code does something that may not be obvious just from reading the code (which would be suitable for a comment). Commit f0a1f8bdb5, which introduces it, has the message "Do not ignore short words". The current code does not have to *do* anything to check short words; that commit simply removed a check. I do not see anything in the current code that raises any questions that need answering by a comment. On the contrary, the comment raises a question: "is there some setting for minimum word length that I need to be aware of?". So I feel I've missed something here that a rewording of the comment could fix.
