Well, it was protected just because we didn't think apps needed to call it directly.
You could workaround it ... subclass it and add your own public method that delegates to .getTermsEnum. Or access it via reflection. Alternatively, just call Query.rewrite() and the returned Query will reflect the terms that the original query had expanded to (though, it may rewrite to MultiTermQueryWrapperFilter, which won't get you the terms ...). But, can you describe more how you plan to create performant filters from this method?
