While there have been several different topics brought up on this
thread, it seems we're diverging from the original idea. Let's
consider the most basic use case example here, and I'm making it
intentionally as concrete as possible:
A Swing client performs searches by communicating with a Lucene
search server, which is wrapped by a RESTful servlet. The client
wants to issue sophisticated queries that are not supported by
QueryParser.
Let me add another use-case to this, which is just about the same but
not made up. I have a Ruby on Rails front-end and an XML-RPC Lucene
search server. A query consists of a set of constraints, which
translates into BitSet operations for faceted browsing, which can
also include full-text queries. Currently QueryParser is sufficient
for the full-text queries, but probably not for long.
Having a standard way to express a query, in a non-Java way, would
work well in my case.
