Can you show us some code or pseudo-code for a BooleanScorer that would use impact-sorted posting lists?
Another way to interpret this proposal is index-only: the low-level indexing APIs should be general enough to permit impact-sorted posting lists, and perhaps an impact-sorted posting list index implementation could be provided in the core, but the existing search API's might not work well or at all with an impact-sorted index. Perhaps they could interoperate at a "weighted filter" level. There could be a separate search implementation for impact-sorted indexes, and it could provide output as a weighted filter, and the document-sorted search implementation could accept weighted-filter clauses. Does that make sense? It would be a little like span queries: a separate query resolving engine that interoperates with the standard engine, but does not replace it.
