Is there an existing issue or pull request for this?

Feature description

I'm a bit frustrated by the fact that the searched term metric matches the term cluster, because of the letters ter which yes, are in the metric word, but not in the original order.

According to this SO thread, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68037392/why-do-items-match-in-fuse-js-if-the-pattern-contians-a-letter-that-doesnt-exis, Fuse uses Levenshtein distance, and it is not possible to achieve what I want.

Do you guys confirm? Am I the only one frustrated by this behavior?
Thank you

Desired solution

I'd like Fuse to always respect the order of the letters in the searched term. For my specific example, the searched word metric should not return as a match the word cluster.

Alternatives considered

According to the mentioned thread, a different library (not sure I can mention here, but it's in the link) would solve the problem. I found this thread that seems to discuss a similar topic, but with no actual solution to my specific problem: #41

I'm assuming it's not currently possible to achieve what I need, too bad 😢
