  // To improve searching for numerical data such as dates, IP addresses
  // or version numbers, we consider a group of numerical characters
  // separated only by punctuation characters to be one piece.
  // This also means that searching for e.g. '20/03/1984' also returns
  // results with '20-03-1984' in them.
  // Readable regexp: ([number]+)[punctuation]+(?=[number])
  $text = preg_replace('/([' . PREG_CLASS_NUMBERS . ']+)[' . PREG_CLASS_PUNCTUATION . ']+(?=[' . PREG_CLASS_NUMBERS . '])/u', '\\1', $text);

  // Multiple dot and dash groups are word boundaries and replaced with space.
  // No need to use the unicode modifer here because 0-127 ASCII characters
  // can't match higher UTF-8 characters as the leftmost bit of those are 1.
  $text = preg_replace('/[.-]{2,}/', ' ', $text);

  // The dot, underscore and dash are simply removed. This allows meaningful
  // search behavior with acronyms and URLs. See unicode note directly above.
  $text = preg_replace('/[._-]+/', '', $text);

  // With the exception of the rules above, we consider all punctuation,
  // marks, spacers, etc, to be a word boundary.
