To be honest, I am not convinced this and the 'o' switch are actually
useful. If anything I would prefer they are removed from the spec :-)


Well, all phrase modifiers are optional, so it wont matter much if you
ignore it. OTH if this is utterly useless then there is no reason to have it
in the spec. I think that the reason for including it was something like
"some indexers support this and they should be able to expose their full
feature set".


Same for the query language's InSet selector, since it can be
expressed with several Equals in a Or block.


Yes, but it can greatly simplify some queries. I think we can remove many
selectors if we remove "syntactic sugar"...

Cheers,
Mikkel
