[Snowball-discuss] German suffix stripping not complete

Hello list,

I'm wondering if there is a good reason for the German stemmer not to
suffix strip the s in words ending on 'os'.
Autos, kinos, echos, bu"ros, silos, pianos, et.c.

Here are some words you can consider.

Albatros, apropos, chaos, epos, kosmos, gros, rigoros, grandios, los, haarlos.

All I can think of will be pretty much ok suffix stripped.
