> In a chat with Chris Male and my own ideas when implementing for PANGAEA, I 
> thought about the broken distance query in contrib. It lacks the following 
> features:
> - It needs a query/filter for the enclosing bbox (which is constant score)
> - It needs a separate filter for filtering out hits to far away (inside bbox 
> but outside distance limit)
> - It has no scoring, so if somebody wants to sort by distance, he needs to 
> use the custom sort. For that to work, spatial caches distance calculation 
> (which is broken for multi-segment search)
> The idea is now to combine all three things into one query, but customizeable:
> We first thought about extending CustomScoreQuery and calculate the distance 
> from FieldCache in the customScore method and return a score of 1 for 
> distance=0, score=0 on the max distance and score<0 for farer hits, that are 
> in the bounding box but not in the distance circle. To filter out such 
> negative scores, we would need to override the scorer in CustomScoreQuery 
> which is priate.
> My proposal is now to use a very stripped down CustomScoreQuery (but not 
> extend it) that does call a method getDistance(docId) in its scorer's advance 
> and nextDoc that calculates the distance for the current doc. It stores this 
> distance also in the scorer. If the distance > maxDistance it throws away the 
> hit and calls nextDoc() again. The score() method will reurn per default 
> weight.value*(maxDistance - distance)/maxDistance and uses the precalculated 
> distance. So the distance is only calculated one time in nextDoc()/advance().
> To be able to plug in custom scoring, the following methods in the query can 
> be overridden:
> - float getDistanceScore(double distance) - returns per default: (maxDistance 
> - distance)/maxDistance; allows score customization
> - DocIdSet getBoundingBoxDocIdSet(Reader, LatLng sw, LatLng ne) - returns an 
> DocIdSet for the bounding box. Per default it returns e.g. the docIdSet of a 
> NRF or a cartesian tier filter. You can even plug in any other DocIdSet, e.g. 
> wrap a Query with QueryWrapperFilter
> - support a setter for the GeoDistanceCalculator that is used by the scorer 
> to get the distance.
> - a LatLng provider (similar to CustomScoreProvider/ValueSource) that returns 
> for a given doc id the lat/lng. This method is called per IndexReader one 
> time in scorer creation and will retrieve the coordinates. By that we support 
> FieldCache or whatever.
> This query is almost finished in my head, it just needs coding :-)
