I think that it's trying to be too smart for its own good. 

>From my perspective, the user should be able to build up their own query and
get search results that actually reflect their query, rather than a mangled
query.

That being said, I am a power user, so maybe novice users would prefer the
system to think for them.

Maybe my other issues are actually about inconsistency and inefficiency in the
query building in general, but... my latest buildQuery unit tests actually
provide the start for improving the search code overall... maybe I'm just
having a grump ;).
