You can use the QueryParser for this; set a term prefix before parsing
the query, for instance. Not that if you're matching on exact titles,
you probably want a phrase search (or, if you're not doing anything
else, possibly to construct the term as XTITLE<title> and match it as
a single (boolean) term, without using the QueryParser at all).
