Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-4858:
--------------------------------------

bq. The reason I did that is in case someone will want to sort by a stored 
field and numeric field which have same names.

A Sorter which sorts by stored field values would indeed need to add more 
information to its ID (at least to say that it is a stored field).

bq. "numericdv_field" is really unique, as you cannot have two numeric DV 
fields with the same name, but different meaning.

Since doc values types are exclusive, could we then just say that these are doc 
values without mentioning the type? I think this would help keep up with doc 
values types evolutions (for example there used to be BYTES_FIXED_SORTED and 
BYTES_VAR_SORTED which have been merged into SORTED) and/or additions 
(SORTED_SET). I would also prefer having something even more human-readable 
(like "DocValues(fieldName=$fieldName,order=asc|desc)"?).
