It's a long shot ... but maybe we could index the "exact" trie terms
in a separate field than their precShifts? Then we could just take
max of the "exact trie terms" field ... that's a big change though
{quote}
I think there is a much simpler solution though, we just dont return
FilteredTermsEnum from that one method, instead a regular termsenum. it just
has to look for the special byte prefix and return END.
Then we can easily do what we want.

> Having upper/lower bounds on terms could be useful for various optimizations
> in the future, e.g. to accelerate sorting (if a segment can't compete, don't
> even search it), and so on.
> Its pretty obvious how to get the smallest term, but the maximum term for a
> field is tricky, but worst case you can do it in ~ log(N) time by binary
> searching term space.
