I would be open to changing the search library if it would improve the user experience. Some things to keep in mind:

Hello. I recently finished reading the Rust book, and when I played around with the search feature, I realized that it doesn't handle typos. You just don't get any results. I read through #51, and I didn't see any mention of Fuse.js, which is like Elasticlunr, but is designed to handle fuzzy-searching/typos.
Would the mdBook owners be open to possibly switching to it? There might be disadvantages too, like a noticeably slower search or subjectively worse results, so it would take some investigation/experimentation.
