Eric Jain commented on LUCENE-489:
----------------------------------

Would be nice if this request could be revisited: For those people who do need 
to add support for wildcards at the beginning of terms (and for whom 
performance is not an issue) it is rather intimidating to have to write a 
custom query parser rather than e.g. just override a single method somewhere!
