Hi Masi,
my first intention was to get the indexed_search work with turkish.
I don't see a hook there for additional markers. Anyway it seems to be a 
unwritten rule to use uppercase for markers.

are you sure that this work? In this case it will, because the markers in 
template are written in uppercase, i don't know what happens if they are 
written in lowercase.

Of coarse there are some other upeercasing things in core, but as i observed 
on the turkish site all seems to work.
