> More then a few users have gotten burned by thinking that "{{\*}}" is the 
> appropriate syntax for "match all docs" when what it really does (unless i'm 
> mistaken) is create a prefix query on the default search field using a blank 
> string as the prefix.
> since it seems very unlikely that anyone has a genuine usecase for making a 
> prefix query with a blank prefix, we should change the default behavior of 
> the LuceneQParser and EDismaxQParsers (and any other Qparsers that respect 
> {{\*:\*}} if i'm forgetting them) to treat this situation the same as 
> {{\*:\*}}.  we can offer a (local)param to force the old behavior if someone 
> really wants it.
