> If you use the "if" function query, you'll often expect to be able to use 
> greater than/less than functions. For example, you might want to boost books 
> written in the past 7 years. Unfortunately, there's no "greater than" 
> function query that will return non-zero when the lhs > rhs. Instead to get 
> this, you need to create really awkward function queries like I do here 
> (http://opensourceconnections.com/blog/2014/11/26/stepwise-date-boosting-in-solr/):
> if(min(0,sub(ms(mydatefield),sub(ms(NOW),315569259747))),0.8,1)
> The pull request to be attached to this Jira adds the following function 
> queries
> -gt(lhs, rhs) (returns 1 if lhs > rhs, 0 otherwise)
> -lt(lhs, rhs) (returns 1 if lhs < rhs, 0 otherwise)
> -gte
> -lte
> -eq
> So instead of 
> if(min(0,sub(ms(mydatefield),sub(ms(NOW),315569259747))),0.8,1)
> one could now write
> if(lt(ms(mydatefield),315569259747,0.8,1)
> (if mydatefield < 315569259747 then 0.8 else 1)
> A bit more readable and less puzzling
