Will changing the query analyzer for a Solr field require me to re-index all data before seeing results. Obviously this is true for a indexing analyzer, but it seems plausible that I could change a query analyzer without requiring a re-index.

Should be fine. Just reload the core or restart Solr. I believe you can actually change indexing analyzer too as long you don’t change the type of field (e.g. integer, etc). You will just have tokens in the index indexed in the old way, which could be quite confusing.
