             Summary: Nested SpanNear queries lose positional highlights
                 Key: LUCENE-5455
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5455
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: modules/highlighter
    Affects Versions: 4.6.1, 4.3.1
            Reporter: Steve Davids
             Fix For: 4.8, 5.0


Given text of: "x y z x z x a"
With a query of: spanNear([spanNear([text:x, text:y, text:z], 0, true), 
text:a], 10, false)
Resulting highlight: <B>x</B> <B>y</B> <B>z</B> <B>x</B> <B>z</B> <B>x</B> 
<B>a</B>
Expected highlight: <B>x</B> <B>y</B> <B>z</B> x z x <B>a</B>

This is caused because WeightedSpanTermExtractor.extractWeightedSpanTerms takes 
the SpanQuery and flattens all terms and uses the positions from the outermost 
SpanNear clause (ignoring the nested SpanNear positions). I believe this could 
be resolved with a little recursion - walking the span query tree in the 
extractWeightedSpanTerms method.
