I'm trying to create a fairly complex SpanQuery from a binary parse tree. I create SpanOrQueries from SpanTermQueries and combine SpanOrQueries into BooleanQueries. So far, so good. The problem is that I don't see how to create a SpanNotQuery from a BooleanQuery and a SpanTermQuery. I want the Bool
