Chris Male commented on LUCENE-4412:
------------------------------------

One of the big challenges for this API is the issue of multiple-values.  
Applying a function to two lots of multiple-values is different as you begin to 
run into order problems and issue of what to do when the cardinalities are 
different.

> When documenting a lot of these classes today I found myself confused and it 
> isn't the first time with this API.  
> I think we need to step back and reassess what we want from this API, what 
> use cases its designed to meet, and redesign it from the ground up.
