I have two motivations for this change: 1) Finding all points at a distance of a line can be approximated by creating a polygon and two circles and finding all points that is inside any of those geometries. Currently three queries are need inside a boolean OR. With this approach it can be executed in a single query. 2) API-wise, it simplifies the implementation as you don't need to know which geometry you are dealing with to create the query. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
