Has anbody written an extension for fuzzy search of any sort for SQLite?

Define "fuzzy". There is the [Spellfix1](https://sqlite.org/spellfix1.html) extension that makes it possible to search potentially misspelled words, even in FTS indexes.

Absolutely what I am looking for. What's in a name. eh? I'm sorry for being hopelessly vague with the word 'fuzzy' but I intended algorithms with Levenshtein distance metrics and so on. This is extension is just right. Thank you so much.
