Some examples:
tsvector delete(tsvector, text)
remove wronlgy indexed word (may, be a stop word)
text[] to_array(tsvector)
In my practice, I needed it to work with smlar module.
tsvector to_tsvector(text[])
Converts list of tags to tsvector, because search in tsvector is more
flexible and fast than array's equivalents
set unnest(tsvector)
Count some complicated statistics.

That functions mostly needed in utility processing rather in workflow.
