Sometimes I want to search the forum for small words; like idx, P1, log

The search-page gives me something like this
The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: idx.
You must specify at least one word to search for. Each word must consist of at least 3 characters and must not contain more than 14 characters excluding wildcards.
Might it be useful to remove these restrictions?

This gets annoying... Can we remove these kind of limitations?

I recently got admin rights and I'm now reinitiating the search index and have removed "too common word" from the setting. The index may need some hour or two to get done.
