Yonik Seeley commented on LUCENE-5178:
--------------------------------------

Yes, I think tracking/exposing missing values is the best option,  esp for 
numerics where you can use the full range and still tell of there was a value 
or not.
                
> doc values should expose missing values (or allow configurable defaults)

> DocValues should somehow allow a configurable default per-field.
> Possible implementations include setting it on the field in the document or 
> registration of an IndexWriter callback.
> If we don't make the default configurable, then another option is to have 
> DocValues fields keep track of whether a value was indexed for that document 
> or not.
