Hi - no we're not getting any errors because we enabled positions on all fields 
that are also listed in the qf-parameter. If we don't, and send a phrase query 
we would get an error such as:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: field "h1" was indexed without position data; 
cannot run
PhraseQuery (term=a)

We have fields in qf that we don't need to be searched for explicit phrase 
queries so we'd like to omit positions, offsets and so on. But if we do, we'll 
get the above error for explicit phrase queries.

Thanks
