[TYPO3-Solr] Suggest with synynoms ?

Hellau!

We've just stumbled across the fact that the suggest-function does not 
use defined synonmys, whereas the normal "search" does respect them.

This leads to an interesting behaviour like the following:
- entering a synonym, suggest does not hint towards a single hit.
- hitting enter (thus serching) however returns the matching hit.

"interesting" behaviour in the sense of unexpected and somewhat 
confusing due the fact that suggest returns other results than "search".

The behaviour seems to be caused by special query-type thats used for 
the suggest-feature.

Question: Anyone of you experienced the same and found a solution?
"solution" in that, the result-behaviour is the same in search & suggest ?

Thanks, regards Georg
