Cannot search word "get"

Bug report

I have a note that contains the word “get” in the title and in the body. However, whenever you search for it, you can’t find it.

Info

Platform: Windows
Platform version: 10
App Version: 3.10.2

Reproduce

Create a new note, call it ‘get’, add ‘get’ to the body. Search for ‘get’ and no notes will appear. (‘get’ without quotes in every step).

Hi, thank you for the report.

This is correct behavior because get is a stopword.
Inkdrop’s full-text search engine is based on Lunr.js and it has a stop word filter:

lunr.generateStopWordFilter = function (stopWords) {
  var words = stopWords.reduce(function (memo, stopWord) {
    memo[stopWord] = stopWord
