Well, there is a QueryParser module, which is indeed "like Lucene's
QueryParser". Was it just not easily found, or is it not enough like the
Lucene variant for you? As great a library as Lucene is, we explicitly do not
plan to copy it.

Interestingly, this ticket was for KinoSearch1, the stable fork of KinoSearch
0.1x, and in this distribution the QueryParser, located at
KinoSearch1::QueryParser::QueryParser, happens to be written in pure Perl.
In the current API-unstable mainline, the QueryParser, located at
KinoSearch::Search::QueryParser is implemented in C. However, it is
subclassable from pure Perl, as KinoSearch::Docs::Cookbook::CustomQueryParser
illustrates.
