>
> skipTo seems to be optional functionality on the Scorer class (BooleanScorer
> doesn't implement it).  BooleanQuery.scorer() tests all subclauses using
> "instanceof BooleanQuery" to determine if it can use a ConjunctionScorer that
> requires skipTo functionality.
> This means that any other new Query/Scorer that don't implement skipTo will 
> get
> into trouble when included in a BooleanQuery.
> If skipTo is really optional, then there should be some way of telling by the
> Scorer or the Query in a more generic manner.
> Some options:
> 1) have a "boolean Scorer.hasSkipTo()" method
> 2) have a "boolean Query.hasSkipTo()" method
> 3) remove Scorer.skipTo and have a "public interface ScorerSkipTo{boolean
> skipTo(int doc)}" that scorers may implement
