Retrieving a Hit Object from a HitDetails Instance

[Trey Spiva]

I am using the clustering plugin in Nutch.  The Clustering plugin  
returns the set of HitDetails that are grouped by clusters.  When  
using the anchors.jsp and cached.jsp you need to pass the indexNo and  
indexDocNo properties to the pages.  However, the properties only  
seem to be present on the Hit classes, and I can not find a way of  
retrieving a Hit instance from a HitDetails instance.

Does anyone have any ideas?
What have done is modified getDetails method in IndexSearcher so that  
the returned HitDetails has the index number and document index  
number as field values.  Does this sound like a good patch idea?

Thanks
