Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-3918:
------------------------------------

One of the usecases for IndexSorter is for when you want to e.g. do quick early 
termination for a query. Then, if you sort the index (say by date), and you're 
interested in documents sorted by date, then you can do a fast early 
termination after visiting exactly N docs.

I'm not sure that I understand your proposal though and whether it'll help such 
usecases?
