Hi, I recently came across elastic and I am really impressed with the percolate query. I have a requirement to do dictionary match on a given input text.

I want to index all product names and do a percolate query using a input statement like

> The user called to inquire on `<em>Product -A</em>` and` <em>Product B</em>`

It works perfectly except when there is a typo in the word. It does a exact match, I want to understand if it can do a fuzzy match instead?

Thanks!
