Issue: booleannaming, priority: , status: open

I agree with the suggestion listed in this issue that ftand and ftor
would be preferable to && and ||

&& has problems in XPath as that's often used in XML so would have to be
&amp;&amp;  XPath already makes use of < but there's no need to make the
sitation worse, and a query using full text search is likely to make a lot of
use of &&

|| can easily be misread as |.
