[sword-devel] search failing in Hebrew modules

Nice attempt Matthew.  The issue here is that UTF8HebrewPoints is an 
OptionFilter type and thus has the ability to be in different modes 
(this one is simply On and Off) and the default for this particular 
filter is On.

Could you try a few things for me?  Could you try turning off Hebrew 
Vowel Points in Xiphos (I'm guess there is an option somewhere that 
allows turning on and off option filters) and then try your test again?
