Wouldn't having a stemmed index and a non-stemmed one also allow the same usability? The user could then just select which index to use.

  That would work, but I am not sure it's worth maintaining two indices.

  Yes and it can make certain use cases easier. There are pros and cons to both index-time and query-time stemming, synonyms, etc. I usually use index-time stemming and query-time synonyms.
