Mark Miller updated LUCENE-1001:
--------------------------------
Attachment: LUCENE-1001.patch
Fixes the unorderedspan ispostionavailable issue for good measure.
I think we have to give the payloads back unsorted - there are probably cases
where you could just use all the payloads for a span rather than per term, so
we might as well not incur a penalty there. If you need per term, you can put
the position into the payload (pretty simple) and then just sort yourself.
