The client must set the property, how solr deals with that is how I want it to 
work.

What version of solr does this first appear? we're using a nightly build from 
December which was heavily hacked to do database result returning and word 
offset highlighting (and some other fixes) so we'd like to avoid using anything 
newer.

How does this work? I'm still confused from your explanation. Are the query 
options turning the filters on or off? what kind of hander would go into 
solrconfig.xml?
