Jan,
I think it's worth to start from extending LuceneQParser. Then after
parent's parse() returns a query instance. It can be cast to BooleanQuery,
after that it's possible to check that all clauses have SHOULD occur, and
to create an instance of DisjunctionMaxQuery() from the given clauses.
Am I missing something?
