Hi Ian,

No, the * syntax you mentioned is not supported. However, there are a
couple of ways of achieving this.

1. Create a copyField which has all the content and search on that --
as you mentioned
2. You can use dismax and add all the fields as the search field
parameter either in the request of the defaults section in
solrconfig.xml
3. You can explictly search for all fields by field:value syntax

To get all terms, you can use the facet.field for all fields and get
all the terms. However, I'm not able to understand the use-case for
this.
