Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1088:
--------------------------------------------

OK, though, now I'm wondering whether one should simply subclass PriorityQueue 
to achieve this change to insert()'s behavior, instead of adding these two 
methods.  Is there a reason why this approach can't be used instead?

I realize this would replicate the logic in insert() in a subclass, but I think 
that's a fairly minor cost vs increasing the complexity of PriorityQueue by 
adding these two methods?
