Hi Amin, If there are interesting use cases for this I would like to know more about it. Technically it doesn't seem hard to implement, but would you not use the native IndexSearcher anyway to make use of this? I mean, would there be a practical use case to set the collector and then let the search results be handled by Hibernate Search, or are you going to handle the collected results with custom code anyway? Also we have plans to set a custom collector to perform some nice performance optimization tricks: I was thinking to leverage the advantage of FieldCaches by default, so you would loose this advantage by setting a custom one if yours doesn't use the same caches.
