David Smiley commented on SOLR-5211:
------------------------------------

{quote}I'm unclear on your meaning. I would think the default behavior when 
deleting a parent (regardless of by id or by query) should also delete its 
children, to avoid ending up with orphans.
{quote}
That would certainly be nice but it's a technical challenge that we don't have 
a solution for.  In this issue we've tackled delete-by-id only (and for 
better/worse it only works on a top/root doc).  If you have ideas on 
delete-by-query then I suggest filing a new issue.

> if I have parent with children in the index, I can send update omitting 
> children. as a result old children become orphaned. 
> I suppose separate \_root_ fields makes much trouble. I propose to extend 
> notion of uniqueKey, and let it spans across blocks that makes updates 
> unambiguous.  
> WDYT? Do you like to see a test proves this issue?
