Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-4500:
-------------------------------------

yeah i think we should add an option to disable this heuristic. 

It was basically a perf/relevance thing (in general edits of 2, esp considering a transposition is a single edit, along wotj minPrefix of 0 can yield surprisingly irrelevant stuff).

But if someone wants that... let them do it.

> DirectSpellChecker currently mandates a minPrefix of 1 when editDistance=2.  This prohibits a query of "nusglasses" from matching the indexed "sunglasses" term.
> Granted, there can be performance issues with using a minPrefix of 0, but it's a risk that a user should be allowed to take if needed.
