Hi have installed ES 1.0.1 and tried to check the percolator query with AND  
operator.

Added a query to percolator:

curl -XPUT 'localhost:9200/testperc/.percolator/1' -d  
'{"query":{"match":{"message" : "hero AND shine"}}}'

When tried to check for "hero" word that query is matching ideally it  
should not happen.

curl -XGET 'localhost:9200/testperc/message/\_percolate' -d '{"doc" :  
{"message" : "hero"}}'  
{"took":10,"\_shards":{"total":5,"successful":5,"failed":0},"total":1,"matches":[{"\_index":"testperc","\_id":"1"}]}

Please help me how can i use the operators in percolator query?
