robert engels commented on LUCENE-1475:
---------------------------------------

That is not correct. By returning a non-null array, it is trivially to get an 
ordered list of all subreaders using simple recursion.

It does not need to be an interface... no reason, if adding a new method to 
IndexReader (and changing the implementations).

> Expose sub-IndexReaders from MultiReader or MultiSegmentReader

> MultiReader and MultiSegmentReader are package protected and do not expose 
> the underlying sub-IndexReaders.  A way to expose the sub-readers is to have 
> an interface that an IndexReader may be cast to that exposes the underlying 
> readers.  
> This is for realtime indexing.
