How to prefix-search with several words

[ChristophSonnleitner]

Given an index-entry with the following string "Our neighbor talks at home":
Is it possible to find it with the following query "nei home" with one SearchQuery?

I know it works with "nei", "neighbor", "home", "neighbor home", even "nei ghbor"(concatenation).

I tried to workaround this by using MultiQuery, search "nei", "home" and then flatten the result-lists into one distinct (by id) list.
My problem with this approach is that I lose the highlighting information for either "nei" or "home" that way.

I do have a fairly easy way to fix the highlighting issue, but it would still be good to know if what I'd like to do is possible with a single SearchQuery.
