Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-2110:
--------------------------------------------
bq. In my opinion, we should keep it as TermsEnum, even when seeking does not
work, which is documented
OK, let's keep it as subclassing TermsEnum. Maybe we should relax the docs for
TermsEnum to state that each subclass determines order. Nothing in TermsEnum
itself requires a particular order.
> Change FilteredTermsEnum to work like Iterator, so it is not positioned and
> next() must be always called first. Remove empty()

> FilteredTermsEnum is confusing as it is initially positioned to the first
> term. It should instead work like an uninitialized TermsEnum for a field
> before the first call to next() or seek().
> Also document that not all FilteredTermsEnums may implement seek() as eg. NRQ
> or Automaton are not able to support this. Seeking is also not needed for MTQ
> at all, so seek can just throw UOE.
