> IntervalScorer currently uses the same scoring mechanism as SpanScorer,
> summing the IDF of all possibly matching terms from its parent
> IntervalsSource and using that in conjunction with a sloppy frequency to
> produce a similarity-based score. This doesn't really make sense, however,
> as it means that terms that don't appear in a document can still contribute
> to the score, and appears to make scores from interval queries comparable
> with scores from term or phrase queries when they really aren't.
> I'd like to explore a different scoring mechanism for intervals, based purely
> on sloppy frequency and ignoring term weighting. This should make the scores
> easier to reason about, as well as making them useful for things like
> proximity boosting on boolean queries.
