Upayavira commented on LUCENE-6590:
-----------------------------------

My code in this case is just Solr, so it seems that in this change, the 
"normalize based on the value of getvalueForNormalization" wasn't done in Solr.

I've looked briefly at the SolrIndexSearcher, which subclasses IndexSearcher, 
but it doesn't seem to mess with normalization. Any chance you could take a 
look at SolrIndexSearcher and see if something was missed there? I'm definitely 
seeing scores which are tf*tf*idf in Solr results.

> Follow-up from LUCENE-6570: the fact that all queries are mutable in order to 
> allow for applying a boost raises issues since it makes queries bad cache 
> keys since their hashcode can change anytime. We could just document that 
> queries should never be modified after they have gone through IndexSearcher 
> but it would be even better if the API made queries impossible to mutate at 
> all.
> I think there are two main options:
>  - either replace "void setBoost(boost)" with something like "Query 
> withBoost(boost)" which would return a clone that has a different boost
>  - or move boost handling outside of Query, for instance we could have a 
> (immutable) query impl that would be dedicated to applying boosts, that 
> queries that need to change boosts at rewrite time (such as BooleanQuery) 
> would use as a wrapper.
> The latter idea is from Robert and I like it a lot given how often I either 
> introduced or found a bug which was due to the boost parameter being ignored. 
> Maybe there are other options, but I think this is worth exploring.
