I have thousands of people using it daily in dozens of different installations 
so keen to avoid any significant changes/loss.

I have no intention of removing it but as Robert has pointed out in a couple of 
issues there is huge scope for improvement which we cannot ignore.  I'll make 
sure to document any changes.

- the fact it caches 'rewrittenQuery' in the QUERY itself, this means the Query 
is keeping IndexSearcher-dependent state in the Query: this is broken.
- the static similarity, which at the moment must extend TFIDFSimilarity (does 
not work with other scoring systems)

Good points.  The cached rewrittenQuery seems like an easy fix (albeit a change 
that should be documented).  I see your comments in code about averaging out 
statistics.  That seems like a bigger issue.  Moving away from a static 
similarity seems like its doable at this stage.  Is the agnostic scoring model 
support a showstopper?

> In LUCENE-3271, I moved the 'good' queries from the queries contrib to new 
> destinations (primarily the queries module).  The remnants now need to find 
> their home.  As suggested in LUCENE-3271, these classes are not bad per se, 
> just odd.  So lets create a sandbox contrib that they and other 'odd' contrib 
> classes can go to.  We can then decide their fate at another time.
