That “word” is not a “word” but part of code i.e.  
`window.PagedownCustom.appendButtons.push`

If you search for that here, the topics are found and returned in the results

Also works with the partial  
`window.PagedownCustom`

The long term solution is to stop leaning on the tokenizer and stemmer it keeps failing us

History is a bit tricky, but we are going to rebake at some point and pick it up, so for the time being old stuff needs an edit.
