Martijn van Groningen commented on LUCENE-1421:
-----------------------------------------------

bq. But what if docid=2 had age=17 instead? How would we determine what value 
the group (for hgid=1) should have for the "age" field?
That would depend on the group sort, right? If your group sort is age asc the 
lowest document would be chosen.

bq. Or... would the group count +1 to age=10 and +1 to age=17 in that case?
You mean like a sum of all ages per group? That is interesting, but sounds more 
like a function to me. This can be computed with a separated group collector. 
Wouldn't make sense to me, to have this with a regular field facet.

> It would be awesome to group search results by specified field. Some 
> functionality was provided for Apache Solr but I think it should be done in 
> Core Lucene. There could be some useful information like total hits about 
> collapsed data like total count and so on.
> Thanks,
