I'm wanting to search a series of documents which have a nested object 
nature. For instance a Github issue. I'm needing to ideally use the ES search 
lite 
<http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/search-lite.html>
 syntax

I have some top level data (assignee, created_at etc) and some nested 
items, think comments or commits etc.

Dumping an entire document into ES makes it easily searchable but some 
weird side effects come up, most notably around sorting on the nested 
comments.

What's the best practice for this kind of document search? Is it better to 
split the comments into seperate documents with issue meta data attached, 
or via each issue being a big dump in a document?

Ideally, I'd like to be able to search for an document, and sort by one of 
the attributes of the document, either at the top level, or nested inside 
one of the comments.

Any ideas?
