Counter question: what's the supposed usage of the word number? Why
would anyone be interested in that? You always need to parse the text
yourself, to be able to get any use from the word number.
to_tsvector() could as well return the character number or a byte
pointer, I could see advantages for both. But the word number makes
little sense to me.
