Alessandro Benedetti commented on CONNECTORS-1066:
--------------------------------------------------

Hi Shinichiro, the sorting problem is a perfect example!
Why a user should intentionally break the sorting introducing a blank field ?
I'm curious of your opinion, it's not a polemic !
Because only the machine knows the difference between a blank field or a null 
one.
For a human both stand for a field without content.
So if the user will break that sorting will apparently see some document 
without content for the field in the start and some document without content in 
the end.

No problem for me to put it in the metadata Transformer, but In my opinion we 
should try to make as easy as possible for a user to get that default config.
