Jack Krupansky commented on SOLR-2724:
--------------------------------------
Sounds good. At leat to me, but I already know what you mean.
Although, I'm not so sure we need to drag "Lucene" into this. I mean,
technically the Lucene query parser is completely innocent and it is the Solr
wrapper that "does the deed." Maybe it is sufficient to refer to "various query
parsers, including the default Solr query parser, dismax, and edismax."
I would suggest that we advise the user: "The preferred technique is to revise
the "df" parameter for the request handlers that your application will use."
(Hmmm... An advantage of defaultSearchField was that you do it in one place and
then it is set for all request handlers for which it is relevant!)

> I've always been surprised to see the <defaultSearchField> element and
> <solrQueryParser defaultOperator="OR"/> defined in the schema.xml file since
> the first time I saw them. They just seem out of place to me since they are
> more query parser related than schema related. But not only are they
> misplaced, I feel they shouldn't exist. For query parsers, we already have a
> "df" parameter that works just fine, and explicit field references. And the
> default lucene query operator should stay at OR -- if a particular query
> wants different behavior then use q.op or simply use "OR".
> <similarity> Seems like something better placed in solrconfig.xml than in the
> schema.
> In my opinion, defaultSearchField and defaultOperator configuration elements
> should be deprecated in Solr 3.x and removed in Solr 4. And <similarity>
> should move to solrconfig.xml. I am willing to do it, provided there is
> consensus on it of course.
