MoreLikeThis and stopword stemming

What is the appropriate way of achieving both stopwords and
stemming of 
stopwords when the MoreLikeThis class is used? My analyzer 
(MoreLikeThis.setAnalyzer) uses the Snowball filter, and is
initialized 
with a stopwords set:

analyzer = new StandardAnalyzer(stopwords) {
             public TokenStream tokenStream(String
fieldName, 
java.io.Reader reader) {
             return new SnowballFilter(super
.tokenStream(fieldName,reader),
             "English");
             }
};



If I do NOTsupply a separate stopwords list to the
MoreLikeThis object 
(that is, using MoreLikeThis.setStopWords), will "the
right thing" happen; 
that is, will my input text to the MoreLikeThis object be
stemmed and 
(stemmed) stopwords removed before a query is formed? It
seems that 
MoreLikeThis.setStopWords uses a simple lookup of words in
the stop words 
list (no stemming) which is not what I want.

Thanks in advance
