Description

There is no way to specify an open-ended numeric range query using the XML query parser syntax. To be consistent with the usage in the NumericRangeQuery API, which accepts <code>null</code> as an indicator of a missing range endpoint, I propose interpreting an empty or missing <code>lower</code> or <code>upper</code> attribute in the XML syntax in the same way.
