Peter Wolanin commented on SOLR-756:
------------------------------------

We are regularly hitting this wall and users are very frustrated by not being 
able to use wildcards becuase we wanted the other advantages of the dismax 
parser.

Any chance to get some of these changes in 1.4?

> Make DisjunctionMaxQueryParser generally useful by supporting all query types.

> This is an enhancement to the DisjunctionMaxQueryParser to work on all the 
> query variants such as wildcard, prefix, and fuzzy queries, and to support 
> working in "AND" scenarios that are not processed by the min-should-match 
> DisMax QParser. This was not in Solr already because DisMax was only used for 
> a very limited syntax that didn't use those features. In my opinion, this 
> makes a more suitable base parser for general use because unlike the 
> Lucene/Solr parser, this one supports multiple default fields whereas other 
> ones (say Yonik's {!prefix} one for example, can't do dismax). The notion of 
> a single default field is antiquated and a technical under-the-hood detail of 
> Lucene that I think Solr should shield the user from by on-the-fly using a 
> DisMax when multiple fields are used. 
> (patch to be attached soon)
