Description

Currently LatLonPoint can only generate queries that compute the documents that has at least one point intersecting a provided geometry.  LatLonShape on the other hand supports different spatial relationships, namely CONTAINS, WITHIN, DISJOINT and INTERSECTS.

It would be good if LatLonPoint can work as well with different spatial relationships.

It should be possible to modify ShapeQuery to work in both Shape and Points and therefore add the capability to compute spatial relationships for point as well.
