> When the lucene query parser parses a negative query — one where all boolean 
> clauses are prohibited, such as {{NOT bar}}   , possibly as a sub-expression 
> (parenthesis wrapped) — the resulting {{BooleanQuery}} matches no documents.  
> This is not what people intuitively expect.  I've seen code work around this, 
> and it's really annoying.  I've also seen code _forget_ to do this, resulting 
> in undesired behavior.  This has been a long-standing gotcha to stub your toe 
> on with Solr development.
> While it can be argued the fix should be in Lucene, I think Lucene is 
> stubborn on this point, as there is _some_ sense in the current behavior.  I 
> may pursue an opt-in improvement to BooleanQuery.Builder.
