------------------------------------------

             Summary: provide apps details about why TooManyClauses was thrown
                 Key: LUCENE-9970
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9970
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Chris M. Hostetter


Historically, if {{TooManyClauses}} was thrown it meant exactly one thing: That 
a QueryX Builder (typically BooleanQuery, but there are a few others in 
sandbox) was not going to allow it's caller to add a clause because that QueryX 
object already had the maxClauseCount in _direct_ children.

LUCENE-8811 added an additional "reason" why {{TooManyClauses}} may be thrown 
starting in 9.0: IndexSearcher may now throw this exception  if the (rewritten) 
Query being executed has a _cumulative_ number of clauses – across the entire 
structure of _nested_ Query objects – that exceeds the maxClauseCount.
----
I think it would be helpful to users if it was possible to tell from the 
{{TooManyClauses}} exception how the maxClauseCount was exceeded (because of 
the total number of direct children during rewrite, or cumulatively across the 
entire nested structure) w/o needing to inspect the stack frames to see if the 
thrower a rewrite method, or a QueryVisitor method.
