Michael Gibney commented on LUCENE-8531:
----------------------------------------

I recognize that this was a bug (in that using {{SpanNearQuery}} with 
{{inOrder=true}} and {{slop > 0}} changed the behavior, rather than simply the 
implementation, of the built query).

That said, there surely are potential use cases for the {{inOrder=true}} 
behavior, which is supported by {{SpanNearQuery}} but not by 
({{Multi)PhraseQuery}}. Would it be worth opening a new issue to consider 
introducing the ability to specifically request construction of 
{{SpanNearQuery}} and/or {{inOrder=true}} behavior? The work that went into 
building {{SpanNearQuery}} for phrases (commit 
[96e8f0a0afe|https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/commit/96e8f0a0afeb68e2d07ec1dda362894f0b94333d])
 is still useful and relevant, even if the result isn't backward-compatible for 
the case where {{slop > 0}}.

> QueryBuilder.analyzeGraphPhrase() generates SpanNearQuery-s with passed-in 
> phraseSlop, but hard-codes inOrder ctor param as true.
> Before multi-term synonym support and graph token streams introduced the 
> possibility of generating SpanNearQuery-s, QueryBuilder generated 
> (Multi)PhraseQuery-s, which always interpret slop as allowing reordering 
> edits.  Solr's eDismax query parser generates phrase queries when its 
> pf/pf2/pf3 params are specified, and when multi-term synonyms are used with a 
> graph-aware synonym filter, SpanNearQuery-s are generated that require 
> clauses to be in order; unlike with (Multi)PhraseQuery-s, reordering edits 
> are not allowed, so this is a kind of regression.  See SOLR-12243 for edismax 
> pf/pf2/pf3 context.  (Note that the patch on SOLR-12243 also addresses 
> another problem that blocks eDismax from generating queries *at all* under 
> the above-described circumstances.)
> I propose adding a new analyzeGraphPhrase() method that allows configuration 
> of inOrder, which would allow eDismax to specify inOrder=false.  The existing 
> analyzeGraphPhrase() method would remain with its hard-coded inOrder=true, so 
> existing client behavior would remain unchanged.
