Hi Florent, I agree with William here. I think the behavior is correct as it is impossible to sort by a field which doesn't exist. However, it was an extra line of code to make searches return an empty result set no matter what when the index is empty so I added it. You should no longer be getting a exception in this situation in 0.11.3.
