             Summary: Streaming expressions handling of escaped special 
characters bug
                 Key: SOLR-10894
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-10894
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
            Reporter: Houston Putman


Streaming expressions expect all special characters in named parameter values 
to be singly escaped. Since queries can contain strings surrounded by double 
quotes, double-escaping is necessary.

Given the following query: 
{{summary:"\"This is a summary\"\+"}}
A streaming expression would require surrounding the query with double quotes, 
therefore every special character in the query should be escaped: 
{{select(collection,q="\"\\\"This is a summary\\\"\\\+\"",....)}}

Streaming expressions should unescape the strings contained within double 
quotes, however currently they are only unescaping {{\" -> "}}. Therefore it is 
impossible to query for text fields containing double quotes. Also other 
special characters are not unescaped; this inconsistency causes confusion.
