Description Nik Everett 2013-09-20 21:39:58 UTC 
Prefix search doesn't boost results from titles.  In practice this turns out not to be that bad because prefix queries are reasonably uncommon and pages that are titled X seem to have X all over their text.

Turns out that the bug in Elasticsearch was caused by a bug in Lucene [1] which has been fixed.  The fix will be incorporated into Elasticsearch when they upgrade to the as yet unreleased version of Lucene.  At that rate we'll see a fix in a few months.

Luckily, I discovered a work around.  It is less efficient but we can live with that while the bug is fixed.  I'll implement that now.
