Prefix search doesn't boost results from titles. In practice this turns out not to be that bad because prefix queries are reasonably uncommon and pages that are titled X seem to have X all over their text.

Turns out that the bug in Elasticsearch was caused by a bug in Lucene [1] which has been fixed. The fix will be incorporated into Elasticsearch when they upgrade to the as yet unreleased version of Lucene. At that rate we'll see a fix in a few months.
Luckily, I discovered a work around. It is less efficient but we can live with that while the bug is fixed. I'll implement that now.
