> I think we should enable setDiscountOverlaps in DefaultSimilarity by default.
> If you are using synonyms or commongrams or a number of other
> 0-posInc-term-injecting methods, these currently screw up your length
> normalization.
> These terms have a position increment of zero, so they shouldnt count towards
> the length of the document.
> I've done relevance tests with persian showing the difference is significant,
> and i think its a big trap to anyone using synonyms, etc: your relevance can
> actually get worse if you don't flip this boolean flag.
