The algorithm is similar to the PHP reranking and uses the terms from the display name to check against the query terms. However instead of exact matching it uses a per-word-edit-distance, so that it is less strict when it comes to mismatching accents or other one letter differences. Country names get a higher penalty because they don't receive a penalty during token matching right now. This will work badly with the legacy tokenizer. Given that it is marked for removal, it is simply not worth optimising for it.
