Hey Chris, wouldn't doing something like this in the query : (field1:tag1 tag2) OR (field1:tag1 AND tag2)
Achieve similar affect ? The documents that have all the tags (tag1 and tag2) will comply with both conditions and get scores from both while the documents that don't have both tags will only get a score from the 1st (the OR) condition therfore won't have higher score. is this right ?
