I'd love to see a formal syntax like this officially enter the Lucene
standard query language someday.
I doubt that this is something that is ever going to really happen.
There are a couple of approaches to the problem and there are other
similar problems (like allowing stemmed and unstemme
Yonik Seeley adds some wonderful observations:
Yeah, "compatible" analyzer would be a better way to put it. Using
the same analyzer for anything that produces multiple tokens at the
same position is normally wrong.

Back on 17-Apr-2007 (for those searching the archives), I expressed a

it'll all "just happen" for you.

Now, all your searches are on one index, but you have to substitute
'$let' where you want to find LET in your query.. This won't match your
other occurrences of let...
