Would you say you're looking for a classifier with high precision, and perhaps low recall?

To some extent yes. But rather than focusing on the true positives of the entire training set, I would be interested in the algorithm carving out subsets of features and values for which precision is very high - higher than the precision of the entire training set. I hope that makes sense?
