I just want to say that when me and Eduard are talking about "advanced
search" we meant the ability to be able to filter and refine the search
results, doesn't matter if it's pre or post query, etc. We didn't insist
on
advanced search solution. Faceted navigation as a
search pattern is great
to be used. So we may have missed-used the domain terms.

just an example of really advanced faceted search with single search
field
I just love this approach. (note that this is not called facetted search
which "generates refinements suggestions", but this is a form of advanced
search, I believe)
And it would combine well with the Edismax
http://lucidworks.lucidimagination.com/display/solr/The+Extended+DisMax+Que…
Yes, am using Edismax parser and this is possible with edismax.
It would be interesting to investigate if such auto-completion (also
similar to that of the jira search I think) has already been implemented
with Edismax. Savitha? I think asking on the solr-user list would make
sense! For having implemented a basic auto-completion for
i2geo.net, I
dare say that it is a very picky implementation...
There is already Suggester Component available for solr.
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/Suggester/
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/TermsComponent
Am investigating more into this. Using ajax requests with suggester
component should yield a good search auto completion.
I am not 100% sure this is what most users are going to like.
But I am sure it creates nicely exchangeable URls which are also very
important.
