Alan Woodward commented on LUCENE-8747:
---------------------------------------

I spoke to [~jimczi] offline, and we agreed that adding a specific use-case to 
this might make sense, so I've updated the patch to include a new NamedMatches 
class, with a couple of static helper functions.  This class makes it possible 
to associate names with queries; if those queries are then combined into a 
larger, complex query, it is easy to retrieve the names of any queries that 
matched a particular document.

> A Matches object currently allows access to all matching terms from a query, 
> but the structure of the matching query is flattened out, so if you want to 
> find which subqueries have matched you need to iterate over all matches, 
> collecting queries as you go.  It should be easier to get this information 
> from the parent Matches object.
