Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-1980:
-----------------------------------

Phrase slop would work as before if the ^ and $ are encoded as simple special 
tokens in the index.

For multi-valued fields, each sub value need to be tagged.

I think the "^a b c$" syntax is pretty easy to understand. But does it crash 
with any other feature or special char? Perhaps some existing regex stuff that 
I don't know about?

> Sometimes you need to specify that a query should match only at the start or 
> end of a field, or be an exact match.
> Example content:
> 1) a quick fox is brown
> 2) quick fox is brown
> Example queries:
> "^quick fox" -> should only match 2)
> "brown$" -> should match 1) and 2)
> "^quick fox is brown$" -> should only match 2)
> Proposed way of implmementation is through a new BoundaryMatchTokenFilter 
> which behaves like this:
> On the index side it inserts special unique tokens at beginning and end of 
> field. These could be some weird unicode sequence.
> On the query side, it looks for the first character matching "^" or the last 
> character matching "$" and replaces them with the special tokens.
