I think QueryParser already takes care of converting to PrefixQuery
when possible.
Regexes aren't really possible, though. Consider this:
abc* (wildcard query, matching abc followed by anything)
Versus this:
abc* (regex query, matching ab followed by 0 or more c)
I think for that, you're going to want additional syntax in your query parser.
