--------------------------------------------
+1; this is a simple way to expose soft deletes. I left a few comments on
github that Simon already addressed!

>
> This change adds support for soft deletes as a fully supported feature by the
> index writer. Soft deletes are accounted for inside the index writer and
> therefor also by merge policies.
>
> This change also adds a SoftDeletesRetentionMergePolicy that allows users to
> selectively carry over soft_deleted document across merges for retention
> policies. The merge policy selects documents that should be kept around in
> the merged segment based on a user provided query.
