I really don't really know what the typical/common use cases are for 
minShouldMatch.

What about your own great work 
(http://blog.mikemccandless.com/2013/02/drill-sideways-faceting-with-lucene.html)
 as a use-case to start with?
Maybe some consulting committers can also share some insight on how this is 
used in the wild.

> LUCENE-4571 adds a dedicated document-at-time scorer for minNrShouldMatch 
> which can use advance() behind the scenes. 
> In cases where you have some really common terms and some rare ones this can 
> be a huge performance improvement.
> On the other hand BooleanScorer might still be faster in some cases.
> We should think about what the logic should be here: one simple thing to do 
> is to always use the new scorer when minShouldMatch is set: thats where i'm 
> leaning. 
> But maybe we could have a smarter heuristic too, perhaps based on cost()
