--------------------------------------------

bq. Then, we can see how to proceed with check() and whether it should be part 
of this issue or another one.

Fair enough!

bq. I have a feeling my last couple of issues just grew larger the more we 
discussed them, so I hope to keep this one containable 

Alas this is what happens when you tackle tricky issues... sort of like pulling 
out that innocent looking thread sticking out on the bottom of your shirt ;)

> Add next() and skipTo() variants to DocIdSetIterator that return the current

>  for the full discussion. The basic idea is to add variants to those two 
> methods that return the current doc they are at, to save successive calls to 
> doc(). If there are no more docs, return -1. A summary of what was discussed 
> so far:
> # Deprecate those two methods.
> # Add nextDoc() and skipToDoc(int) that return doc, with default impl in DISI 
> (calls next() and skipTo() respectively, and will be changed to abstract in 
> 3.0).
> #* I actually would like to propose an alternative to the names: advance() 
> and advance(int) - the first advances by one, the second advances to target.
> # Wherever these are used, do something like '(doc = advance()) >= 0' instead 
> of comparing to -1 for improved performance.
> I will post a patch shortly
