Create custom dictionary using simple (or just add stop words to simple)
and use it before english stemmer, which has NO stop words !
=# insert into pg_ts_dict
(SELECT 'remove_stopwords', dict_init,
'contrib/english.stop',
dict_lexize,
'simple dictionary with stop words'
FROM pg_ts_dict
WHERE dict_name = 'simple');
insert into pg_ts_dict
(SELECT 'en_stem_no_stopwords', dict_init,
'',
dict_lexize,
'english stemmer without stop words'
FROM pg_ts_dict
WHERE dict_name = 'en_stem');
