what would the semantics making a field mandatory mean?  considering your
specific example...

:      <str name="qf">
:         text^0.5 features^1.0 name^1.2 sku^1.5 id^10.0 manu^1.1 cat^1.4
:      </str>
:      <str name="bla>
:        +text +feature name manu
:     <str>
:
: where 'text' and 'feature' are mandatory and 'name' and 'manu' are
: optional fields.

if text and feature are mandatory but name and manu are not, how are the
other fields in the qf treated?
sorry forget the others fields, they were in the basic example and consider this fields only:

:      <str name="qf">
: text^0.5 features^1.0 name^1.2 manu^1.1 : </str>



if the q param is:  albino elephant  ... what would it mean that text and
feature are mandatory?  do both words have to appear in text and in
feature, or just one in each?


What I wanted is that 'albino' 'elephant' words have to appear in both 'text' and 'features' fields and optionally in 'name' and 'manu' fields.
