AW: Looking for docs that have certain fields empty (an/or not set)

Hi, In Lucene you don't need to use a query parser for that, especially because range Queries is suboptimal and slow: There is already a very fast query/filter available. Ahmet Arslan already mentioned that, we had the same discussion a few weeks ago:
