Grant Ingersoll commented on SOLR-877:
--------------------------------------

bq. Unless I'm missing something, it doesn't make sense to exclude the lower 
bound... seems like it would often be useful to know if what the user typed in 
matched a term in the index.... excluding it would lead one to believe that it 
doesn't exist.

I think excluding the lower bound allows you to get the _next_ item for 
suggestion, but I suppose it is up to the app to decide whether they want to 
confirm the existing word, or just suggest what could come next.

> I wrote a simple SearchComponent on the plane the other day that gives access 
> to Lucene's TermEnum capabilities.  I think this will be useful for doing 
> auto-suggest and other term based operations.  My first draft is not 
> distributed, but it probably should be made to do so eventually.
