Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-8306:
--------------------------------------

I suspect such an API won't be easy to implement eg. on SloppyPhraseMatcher 
given how it handles repetitions: you would need to record positions, offets 
and payloads of previous positions?

Can we do without this new API? It doesn't sound bad to me that highlighters 
highlight phrases as a whole rather than individual terms? Do I miss something?

> Allow iteration over the term positions of a Match

> For multi-term queries such as phrase queries, the matches API currently just 
> returns information about the span of the whole match.  It would be useful to 
> also expose information about the matching terms within the phrase.  The same 
> would apply to Spans and Interval queries.
