Nope -- not in a regular search it didn't...

...your subsequent comments however suggest you may have been refering 
solely to the *grouping* component -- but you didn't mention that in your 
original email.

Based on the jira comments you linked to (SOLR-7254) i guess perhaps 
that's how grouping worked in 4.4, but wether it was actually intended or 
not and/or why that behavior may have changed since -- i have no idea.

And as for wether yonik did/didn't ever intend to support it in regular 
searches: i have no idea -- If he says he planned on it then i guess maybe 
he planned on it, but it's never actually been supported, and when 
suggested in the past it's been argued against heavily as a "miss feature" 
in the past (see SOLR-534) and discouraging people from expecting this to 
ever work in general search results is one of the oldest FAQs we have...
