Hi Lenoid,
Here is another un-committed parser :

Hi Leonid,
I didn't look into solr qparser for a long time, but I think you should be
able to combine different query parsers in one query. Look at the
SolrQueryParser code, maybe now you can specify custom query parser for
every clause (?), st like:
foo AND {!lucene}bar
I dont know, but worth exploring
There is an another implementation of a query language, for which I know it
allows to combine different query parsers in one (cause I wrote it), there
the query goes this way:
edismax(dog cat AND lucene((foo AND bar)~3))
meaning: use edismax to build the main query, but let lucene query parser
build the 3rd clause - the nested 'for and bar' (parsers are expressed as
function operators, so you can use any query parser there exist in SOLR)
it is here, https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5014, but that was
not reviewed/integrated either
So no, you are not always limited by the query parser - you can combine
them (in more or less limited fashion). But yes, the query parsers limit
the expressiveness of your query language, but not what can be searched
(they will all produce Query object).
Best,
roman
