Is it possible to boost the query that MoreLikeThis returns before sending it to Solr? I mean, technically is possible, because you can add a factor to the whole query but...does it make sense? (Remember that MoreLikeThis can already boosts each term inside the query).

For example, this could be a result of MoreLikeThis (with native boosting enabled)

queryResultMLT = (this^0.4 is^0.5 a^0.6 query^0.33 of^0.29 morelikethis^0.67)

what I want to do is

queryResulltMLT = (this^0.4 is^0.5 a^0.6 query^0.33 of^0.29 morelikethis^0.67)^0.60 <---(notice the boost of 0.60 for the whole query)

does Solr applys the boost with a "distributive" property ? (like in mathematics). Does it really boost it or it ignores it (Because terms have been already boosted inside)?

Thanks in advance.
