                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1036
             Project: Solr

             Fix For: 1.4


on the trunk, defType currently defaults to the "luceneWithSort" option, which 
has legacy support for syntax like "field:value;sort_field desc" where the 
semi-colon character is considered special if-and-only-if there is no "sort" 
param.

this syntax has proved confusing to new users on at least one occasion, and has 
been deprecated for a while.

In 1.4 we should change the default to use defType=lucene and add a note for 
people upgrading about how to force the legacy semicolon behavior.
