The wiki entry for hl.highlightMultiTerm:

http://wiki.apache.org/solr/HighlightingParameters#hl.highlightMultiTerm

doesn't appear to be correct.  It says:

If the SpanScorer is also being used, enables highlighting for
range/wildcard/fuzzy/prefix queries. Default is false.

But the code in DefaultSolrHighlighter (both on the 1.4 branch that
I'm using and in the trunk) does:

    Boolean highlightMultiTerm =
request.getParams().getBool(HighlightParams.HIGHLIGHT_MULTI_TERM,
true);
    if(highlightMultiTerm == null) {
      highlightMultiTerm = false;
    }

which looks to me like like it's going to default to true, since
getBool will never return null, and if it gets a null value from the
parameters internally, it will return true.

Shall I file a Jira on this one?  Perhaps it's easier just to fix the Wiki page?
