Allow ConstantScoreQuery to use custom rewrite method if using for highlighting
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LUCENE-1731
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1731
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: contrib/highlighter
    Affects Versions: 2.4.1, 2.4
            Reporter: Ashley Sole
            Priority: Minor


I'd like to submit a patch for ConstantScoreQuery which simply contains a 
setter method to state whether it is being used for highlighting or not. 

If it is being used for highlighting, then the rewrite method can take each of 
the terms in the filter and create a BooleanQuery to return (if the number of 
terms in the filter are less than 1024), otherwise it simply uses the old 
rewrite method.

This allows you to highlight upto 1024 terms when using a ConstantScoreQuery, 
which since it is a filter, will currently not be highlighted.

The idea for this came from Mark Millers article "Bringing the Highlighter back 
to Wildcard Queries in Solr 1.4", I would just like to make it available in 
core lucene
