 > Best I can tell, you cannot add hamza, diacritics, and tāʼ marbūṭah to
 the stopwords list because the list only operates on entire words, not the
 stripping of individual characters, correct?

 Yes, If we can't remove those chars from the user input before the
 stopwords comparison, the Arabic translators may need to write every
 stopword 3-5 times! as you know we can't trust the user input.

 > We could also add a filter to the end of the parse_search_terms()
 method. But at that point, I think the crazy regular expression in
 parse_search() should possibly be moved into it, and search_terms_count
 should be set after?
