Hi,
Lucene 5 removed the way to boost queries on its own. You have to live
with that. In addition, all queries should be immutable Not yet enfocred
in Lucene 5), which is required for caching purposes*).
When you apply a BoostQuery on top of any other query the scores the
inner query return are just multiplied by the boost. Of course the
original query won't change. That is the typical "wrapper pattern".
I don't understand what you problem is, why do you want to cast those
queries to something they aren't?

*) In Lucene 5 not all queries are yet really immutable, but most of
them were changed or setters deprecated. E.g., BooleanQuery has a
builder in 5.5, with all constructors deprecated. The reason for this is
also immutablility: It should be impossible to change the clauses after
constructing the query, so a builder is needed.
