I think both are useful (e.g. one may only be interested in hits matching
> 90% of both query and subject). How about keeping the percent method
deprecated with the same for backward compatibility (lack of a switch
choosing one behaviour seems icky) and introducing percent_subject and
percent_query to unambiguously define the functionality?
