My fields are

<field name="id" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" required="true"
multiValued="false" />
<field name="name" type="text_general" indexed="true" stored="true"
multiValued="true"/>
<field name="name_long" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"
multiValued="true"/>
<field name="type" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"
multiValued="true"/>
<field name="label" type="text_general" indexed="true" stored="true"
multiValued="true"/>
<field name="label_long" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"
multiValued="true"/>
<field name="date" type="date" indexed="true" stored="true"
multiValued="true"/>
<field name="constituencies" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"
multiValued="true"/>
<field name="office" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"
multiValued="true"/>

And doing

<str name="fq">name_long:"paisley, ian"</str>
<str name="q">
(constituencies:(+ian +paisley) OR label:(+ian +paisley) OR office:(+ian
+paisley))
</str>
</lst>

And

<str name="fq">name_long:"paisley, ian"</str>
<str name="q">
(constituencies:(ian AND paisley) OR label:(ian AND paisley) OR office:(ian
AND paisley))
</str>

return zero results. However, if I do

<str name="fq">name_long:"paisley, ian"</str>
<str name="q">
*:* OR (constituencies:(ian paisley) OR label:(ian paisley) OR office:(ian
paisley))
</str>
</lst>

I do get results, but I'm not sure if putting *:* at the start will break
things down the line with other queries.
