Description
Xapian supports stemmers for a range of languages, see http://xapian.org/docs/apidoc/html/classXapian_1_1Stem.html
There should be an option to chose the stemmer, currently it is hardcoded to English.

#1
Sounds like a simple addition. I consider this a feature request, but regardless I agree that it's an important feature that makes this module available to a much wider audience -- without which it's useless to many. Patches welcome! Otherwise, I'll try and look into implementing myself soon.
#2
Committed to 6.x-1.x-dev. The stemming language is now configurable.
