Description

Note from Upayavira on SOLR-7666:

I agree that the query tab is difficult in that it expects you to know what all these options mean. I'd love to see a new take on the query tab - a bit more akin to what /browse does - a more traditional query interface. But it'd take quite some thinking as to how to make it generic and work across all datasets.

Please do create a new ticket for this. I'm thinking about a "query builder" that allows you to pick from a list of fields to query, then type in terms you want to query from those fields, and it spits out a query string, much like the query UI currently spits out a URL.
