Description

It would be nice if there was a configuration to disable leading wildcards in edismax queries. Right now it seems they are always allowed, and there is no configuration to change this.

Something simple like this would do it I think:
up.setAllowLeadingWildcard(solrParams.getBool("allowLeadingWildcard", true));
