This is already in there, at least in version .18 and probably for a 
few release prior. Under Manage Recordings -> Schedule Recordings -> 
Search Words -> Titles. Give it the words you want to look for and, 
even if there are no current matches, schedule a recording. I use the 
people version of this to pick up films with my favourite actors. It's 
amazing how much stuff I would have missed without it.

I believe you can achieve this by turning off duplicate matching.
