Alan Woodward commented on LUCENE-8196:
---------------------------------------

{quote}Do we need {{IntervalIterator.score()}}?{quote}

Yes, terms and phrases return 1 instead than taking the overall width into 
account.  This is so that they score the same as TermQuery and PhraseQuery
{quote}Do we need {{advanceTo}}?{quote}
Unfortunately yes, or at least we need a way of resetting the iterator on each 
new document.  It might be possible to avoid passing the doc down and having a 
return value though, I'll see what I can do.
{quote}I would like some form of AssertingIntervalsSource{quote}
This is a bit trickier, as it's not obvious where the wrapping would happen.

+1 to everything else, I'll work on a follow-up.

> This ticket proposes an alternative implementation of the SpanQuery family 
> that uses minimum-interval semantics from 
> [http://vigna.di.unimi.it/ftp/papers/EfficientAlgorithmsMinimalIntervalSemantics.pdf]
>  to implement positional queries across term-based fields.  Rather than using 
> TermQueries to construct the interval operators, as in LUCENE-2878 or the 
> current Spans implementation, we instead use a new IntervalsSource object, 
> which will produce IntervalIterators over a particular segment and field.  
> These are constructed using various static helper methods, and can then be 
> passed to a new IntervalQuery which will return documents that contain one or 
> more intervals so defined.
