Hoss Man commented on SOLR-152:
-------------------------------


>> q=<!lucene>*:* 

one of the major focuses of dismax is to take the hassle out of front end 
client code needing to "preprocess" user queries ... an approach like this 
would require that the client notice when no query is specified, and set teh q 
appropraitely (it would also probably require that the client allways put 
"<!dismax>" in front of most input to "escape" the possibility of a user 
searching on something like "<!lucene>"

at a broader level: annotating the "q" doesn't really address the issue of 
letting the "solrconfig owner" specify what the behavior should be: an extra 
param can be baked into the config, but a prefix on a user query can not.

> Dismax should not require 'q'
