Hi.  A question from the peanut gallery.  Could the checking to see if
a term matches be deferred until the user types a non-whitespace
character followed by either a whitespace character or a movement
operation?  If this is possible, it might speed things up a little.  I
don't know enough about how font-lock work to know if this reasonable.
