Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-80:
----------------------------------
>From an interface point of view, I'm heavily leaning toward getting rid of the
>restriction of lucene queries having to be all negative. This would allow
>using a negative-only query anywhere one currently can use a positive query.
One could simply and naturally do fq=-id:10 to filter out a single document.

> There is a need for negative filter queries to avoid long filter generation
> times and large caching requirements.
> Currently, if someone wants to filter out a small number of documents, they
> must specify the complete set of documents to express those negative
> conditions against.
> q=foo&fq=id:[* TO *] -id:101
> In this example, to filter out a single document, the complete set of
> documents (minus one) is generated, and a large bitset is cached. You could
> also add the restriction to the main query, but that doesn't work with the
> dismax handler which doesn't have a facility for this.
