i don't know that this is really dding a feature ... it's changing syntax.
"foo:*bar" has meaning by default in the query parser ... it's meaning may
typically result in a query that doesn't match anything,
I think it's adding syntax, not changing it.
Right now, you get an exception for foo:*bar
So if we allowed it by default, I would call that 100% backward compatible.
The one issue you brought up is memory, and that should be
investigated. I agree we don't want to make it too easy to blow up
things up.
