Okay, good point. I've got to take a closer look at what we are required to 
support for remote searching.

I think your right though, we probably won't end up needing the factory. For 
right now, the way I set the DEFAULT, we need it to get remote tests to pass. 
But that is all very loose right now - when the caching mechanism is fixed up, 
I think the whole DEFAULT_VALUE_SOURCE will be cleaned right up - especially 
having to set it there on the SortField.

I think we have to support remote for CustomFieldComparator, but I guess 
wouldnt have to for ValueSource.

> Motivation:
> 1) Complete overhaul the API/implementation of "FieldCache" type things...
>     a) eliminate global static map keyed on IndexReader (thus
>         eliminating synch block between completley independent IndexReaders)
>     b) allow more customization of cache management (ie: use 
>         expiration/replacement strategies, disk backed caches, etc)
>     c) allow people to define custom cache data logic (ie: custom
>         parsers, complex datatypes, etc... anything tied to a reader)
>     d) allow people to inspect what's in a cache (list of CacheKeys) for
>         an IndexReader so a new IndexReader can be likewise warmed. 
>     e) Lend support for smarter cache management if/when
>         IndexReader.reopen is added (merging of cached data from subReaders).
> 2) Provide backwards compatibility to support existing FieldCache API with
>     the new implementation, so there is no redundent caching as client code
>     migrades to new API.
