Tim Allison commented on LUCENE-7398:
-------------------------------------
First question:
Is there any utility in a patch that would throw an exception if it spotted a
sibling that shares a term with a niece (or descendant) as in the original
problem? At least let the user know that the returned docs might not be
correct? My little app relies on SpanQueries for retrieval, and this bug is
potentially a real problem.
Second question: would it be of any use if I supplied a PR for @Ignore'd test
cases that currently fail?
Third question:
For the actual solution, do we have to back off to full dynamic programming
(Earley or more modern equivalents)? Or will [[email protected]]'s
recommendations above work?

> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core/search
> Affects Versions: 5.5, 6.x
> Reporter: Christoph Goller
> Assignee: Alan Woodward
> Priority: Critical
> Attachments: LUCENE-7398-20160814.patch, LUCENE-7398-20160924.patch,

> Example for a nested SpanQuery that is not working:
> Document: Human Genome Organization , HUGO , is trying to coordinate gene
> mapping research worldwide.
> Query: spanNear([body:coordinate, spanOr([spanNear([body:gene, body:mapping],
> 0, true), body:gene]), body:research], 0, true)
> The query should match "coordinate gene mapping research" as well as
> "coordinate gene research". It does not match "coordinate gene mapping
> research" with Lucene 5.5 or 6.1, it did however match with Lucene 4.10.4. It
> probably stopped working with the changes on SpanQueries in 5.3. I will
> attach a unit test that shows the problem.
