Erik Hatcher commented on SOLR-3101:
------------------------------------

bq. A question is if span queries allow us to do more complex proximity 
expressions like "a brown fox" NEAR ("blue fence" OR "green gate")

Very much so.  That query would be a SpanNearQuery of a SpanNearQuery("blue 
fence") and a SpanOrQuery of two SpanNearQueries.

The surround query parser can do this (but does not analyze the terms 
currently) but a less friendly syntax.
                
> Add an operator to edismax for word order (Proximity / NEAR)

> A project I'm working on requires *word order* searching. The users are 
> accustomed to Sphinx search, and expect a query like [ A << B ] to return 
> only documents that contain the term A before the term B.
> I believe this can currently be done with the surround parser (SOLR-2703), 
> but we lack an operator for it. It would be great to add it, so that word 
> order searches can be combined by users into sophisticated queries. 
> Note that this should also support a query like [ A << A], which would 
> require that the term be in the document twice (the first instance before the 
> second).
> This issue is part of a meta issue, SOLR-3028, that is requesting two other 
> operators in edismax (quorum search and exact match).
