maybe this is not only a Search404 topic but for all similar modules
the ignored words are the same as they are used e.g. for the search itself.

So do you see a way to unify this?

Where exactly do we have this list of ignored words? Core itself does not have an option, does it?

sorry for that vague description, let me try:

what i found:

uses a textfile to import stop words (which is the right term imho)
http://drupalcode.org/project/apachesolr_multilingual.git/blob/refs/head...

some words in code:
http://drupalcode.org/project/search404.git/blob/refs/heads/6.x-1.x:/sea...

pathauto has a predefined list in code, edit via UI possible:
http://drupalcode.org/project/pathauto.git/blob/refs/heads/6.x-2.x:/path...

and i expect other modules for search (sphinx, lucene …) or handling text / strings to work with stop words too.

so i can agree this issue is not best against search404 - any suggestions?

Stemmer_api has the possibility to process stop words, but it is not very well known and also part of de_stemmer, so i suggested to carve it out:
