      Phonetic Search / 'best match' facility.

      I have looked through a lot of issues and discussion regarding confluence and I find nothing about these issue. Is this because nobody worries about it or is just because I did't search hard enough.

Both algorithms were downloaded from codguru or something similar. 2,b is of course quite simple.
