mini.starter

Description

Mini.starter intentionally doesn't support fuzzy finding. However, allowing users to provide an "is item active" function would allow users to modify the query process themselves to add fuzzy-like functionality without impacting the design of starter. Is this a feature that might be considered?

A simple implementation would just be to allow starter's config to accept an is_item_active property that, when set, would override H.is_item_active.

Research direction

Start by reading the mini.starter module and its current H.is_item_active query path. Determine how a configurable is_item_active function should interact with the existing default behavior, then verify that custom callbacks can change item activation without affecting users who leave the option unset.
