Thanks - I've got the latter situation, actually.

I presume when you wrote your QueryComponent you did the query first execution, 
modification, and second execution all within the equivalent of the prepare() 
method?  I didn't want to replace QueryComponent itself, since it does a fair 
bit of stuff, but maybe I can extend it and just override the appropriate 
method...

Subject: Re: What is the best way in Solr to perform iterative search?

I'm not quite clear on what you want ... if you want to "search within  
previous search results", simply take the original query and turn it  
into an fq parameter for the next request using the new query as the q  
parameter.

If you want to take some part of the current results to form a new  
query internally to Solr, it sounds like what you want is a custom  
QueryComponent.  I've done this, for example, to back off a search  
that had zero results and broaden it automatically.  Register a new  
QueryComponent as "query" and it'll replace the existing one - in  
solrconfig.xml.
