             Summary: spatial pointsOnly flag shouldn't force predicate to Intersects
                 Key: LUCENE-6190
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6190
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: modules/spatial
            Reporter: David Smiley
            Assignee: David Smiley
             Fix For: 5.1


In the process of testing the pointsOnly flag, I realized RPT's optimization to force the predicate to Intersects from Within|Contains isn't sound.  In the case of Within, this is only valid if there is one point per document but not multiple (since _all_ points on a doc need to intersect the query shape), and for Contains it was simply wrong.  

Note that the strategy has no multi-valued hint or some-such.  If it did, then if !multiValued && pointsOnly, *then* Within could be changed to Intersects.  Regardless, swapping the predicate can be done at a higher level (Solr/ES).
