gollark: Did their toaster go on sale yet?
gollark: I want to add full text search to minoteaur, as it would be very not good without that. However, it needs to store an uncompressed copy of stuff to provide many FTS features, which means I would either end up being MILDLY INEFFICIENT and storing revision data twice, or have somewhat more code to avoid duplicate datoids.

gollark: Oh dear. I have encountered a horrible dilemma.
