> Some token filters uses the position length attribute of the token stream to 
> encode the number of terms they put in a single token. 
> This breaks the query parsing because it creates disconnected graph. 
> I've tracked down the abusive case to 2 candidates:
> * ShingleFilter which sets the position length attribute to the length of the 
> shingle.
> * CJKBigramFilter which always sets the position length attribute to 2.
> I don't think these filters should set the position length at all so the best 
> would be to remove the attribute from these token filters but this could 
> break BWC.
> Though this is a serious bug since shingles and cjk bigram now produce 
> invalid queries.
