Did you try SpanFirstQuery?
I had the same need in my application, for implementing type-ahead
functionality over the titles and I found that storing them as un_tokenized
gives the best performance (of course, I don't run any query, but iterate
over the terms in my solution).
Span queries are expensive, but you can try it.
