Hi folks-

Out of curiosity, is there a reason Lucene doesn't have
implementations for concepts like DoubleValues / DoubleValuesSource
that support multiple values per document? Or maybe something like
this does exist in Lucen that I'm not aware of? I can't believe this
hasn't been a topic of discussion at least once, but I couldn't turn
up a past Jira issue.

I ask because most of the faceting implementations in Lucene allow the
user to provide their own xxValuesSource to use instead of assuming
the data is in an indexed field, but there's an inherent limitation
here forcing documents to have a single value. The faceting
implementations have all been updated to operate correctly for
multi-valued documents when referencing an indexed field, but there's
a bit of a gap here if the user wants to supply their own source.

Many thanks!

Cheers,
-Greg
