I posted what I thought would be the best approach to fixing this here along with pointers to some existing code:

SpansExtractor, unfortunately, doesn't take the field to be highlighted into account. Given a some text to highlight, it would seem generally desirable to only highlight a specific fields worth of spans.

For my immediate needs, I only have to highlight the full text with no fragmenting and it must be field aware. I was able to achieve this with just a bit of custom code that doesn't really apply generically. It would be good, though, to have a general framework for converting a Query to a SpanQuery and also to extract field- specific Spans - though at this point my consulting code isn't general purpose enough yet. Perhaps at some point in the future I can distill some of it into the Highlighter codebase though.
