Ethan Gur-esh commented on CMIS-144:
------------------------------------

I'd also like to see this deferred. While I agree that there's value in having this included in the CMIS specification at some point, I think it's actually a larger change to the spec than I'd feel comfortable taking for V1 at this point.

The implication of this change is that:
1) Many repositories would have to implement an FTS query parser/translator.
2) It's not clear what a repository would do if there are subsets of the query language we define that they do NOT support (e.g. what if the repository doesn't support support the "-" indicated above?

> The text search expression is defined as a <character string literal> (as defined by SQL-92).  However, the syntax and semantics of the full text search expression are repo specific.
> I remember there was some resistance to defining a 'lowest common denominator' full text search language, but I don't remember why.
> Given that we define SQL, and that query is a key use case, I think there's value in a deeper FTS definition.
> As a starting point, JCR provides minimal definition. I'm not sure we would need to much further than that to start with.
