How to disable similar search results in 5.0+?

We've just recently upgraded to 5.0.d and our users do not like the automatic display of similar search results.

They search for something like "Order 8675309" and the results show "Showing results for 'Order 8735389'.  Search instead for 'Order 8675309'".  They are not used to verifying the data that they searched for that closely.

Is there a configuration option to disable this typo-correction feature?  Or even better show the reverse of this (i.e. "0 results found.  Did you mean Order 8765389?")?

You can disable this by creating an extension to the search page and re-configuring the AlfSearchList widget so that the spellcheck attribute is false.
