I'm not sure that it makes much sense to say 'I don't know what I want,
nor what you have, but I want it to be from only one index'. What's the
use case for such a distinction?
How about the following:
----------
cql.serverChoice:
This index is used with the index (and relation) are omitted from a search
clause. The server will choose one or more indexes for the given term,
which may or may not otherwise be accessible to the end user.
cql.allIndexes:
Previously named cql.anywhere.
The server will search all indexes which are accessible to the end user
via CQL, in all context sets.
cql.allKnown:
The server will search all indexes which it has access to, even if the end
user does not.
cql.allFields
The server will attempt to search the complete record, potentially
including fields not indexed and not available via CQL to the end user.
