> Today a {{TermInSetQuery}} on field F and terms A, B, C returns this from {{toString}}:
> {noformat}
>   F:A F:B F:C
> {noformat}
> But this gets misleading when you embed it in a {{BooleanQuery}} as a negated clause, which then renders like this:
> {noformat}
>   -F:A F:B F:C
> {noformat}
> Making it look like only the first clause is negated when in fact they all are.
> So ... I'd like to instead change it to:
> {noformat}
> F:(A B C)
> {noformat}
> I know {{Query.toString}} is simply best-effort, is not guaranteed to make something you can then parse in any query parser back to itself, etc., but I think we should still try to make a string that is not misleading when humans stare at it?
