I just tested with Solr 4.8. It supports field(dv_field) for single
valued Strings and performance is great, relative to our requirements. 

Unfortunately asking for multi-value gives me the error
"can not use FieldCache on multivalued field"
just as you suspected.

Tracking through the Solr 5.0 code, the "field" parser returns a
ValueSource, providing FunctionValues that, unfortunately for us, are
limited to single-value. We'll have to extract the multi-values
explicitly with faceting or export, as Joel suggests, for the time
being.
