---------------------------------

             Summary: match-only query support (terms,wildcards,ranges) for 
docvalues fields.
                 Key: SOLR-4477
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4477
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: search
    Affects Versions: 4.2
            Reporter: Robert Muir
         Attachments: SOLR-4477.patch

Historically, you had to invert fields (indexed=true) to do any queries against 
them.

But now its possible to build a forward index for the field (docValues=true).
I think in many cases (e.g. a string field you only sort and match on), its 
unnecessary and wasteful
to force the user to also invert if they don't need scoring.

So I think solr should support match-only semantics in this case for 
term,wildcard,range,etc.
