The admin screen is made for doing a quick query against the default

that end, it assumes that all entered characters should be part of the
search string, so it encodes them accordingly.
On my version, which is 3.5.0, the main screen of the admin interface
has a "Full Interface" link that adds "form.jsp" to the URL and gives
a bunch more options. The defType option is not there, but Query Type
is. Depending on how you have your Solr configured, you may be able
to use that instead.
I forgot that you can specify fields, so part of my statement is wrong.
It does use the default handler, though.
