Specification strings may have the following formats...
 - 3
- A positive integer, indicating a fixed value regardless of the
     number of optional clauses.
 
- -2
- A negative integer, indicating that the total number of optional clauses,
     minus this number should be mandatory.
 
- 75%
- A percentage, indicating that this percent of the total number of
     optional clauses are neccessary.  The number computed from the
     percentage is rounded down and used as the minimum.
 
- -25%
- A negative percentage, indicating that this percent of the total
     number of optional clauses can be missing.  The number computed from the
     percentage is rounded down, before being subtracted from the total
     to determine the minimum.
 
- 3<90%
- A positive integer, followed by the less-than symbol, followed
     by any of the previously mentioned specifiers is a conditional
     specification.  It indicates that if the number of optional clauses is
     equal to (or less than) the integer, they are all required, but
     if it's greater then the integer, the specification applies.
     In this example: if there are 1 to 3 clauses they are all required,
     but for 4 or more clauses only 90% are required.
 
- 2<-25% 9<-3
- Multiple conditional specifications can be seperated by spaces,
     each one only being valid for numbers greater then the one before it.
     In this example: if there are 1 or 2 clauses both are required,
     if there are 3-9 clauses all but 25% are requred, and if there
     are more then 9 clauses, all but three are required.
 
 A few important notes...
 
 - 
 When dealing with percentages, negative values can be used to get
 different behavior in edge cases.  75% and -25% mean the same thing
 when dealing with 4 clauses, but when dealing with 5 clauses 75% means
 3 are required, but -25% means 4 are required.
 
- 
 If the calculations based on the specification determine that no
 optional clauses are needed, the usual rules about BooleanQueries
 still apply at search time (a BooleanQuery containing no required
 clauses must still match at least one optional clause)
 
- 
 No matter what number the calculation arrives at,
 a value greater then the number of optional clauses, or a value less then
 1 will never be used.  (ie: no matter how low or how high the result of the
 calculation result is, the minimum number of required matches will never
 be lower then 1 or greatered then the number of clauses.
