Are Non-consecutive Document IDs feasible?

Hi all, As far as I understand today, Lucene assigns docIDs to documents according to the order in which the documents are added to the index. Hence, docIDs are assigned by the engine in a sequential manner, without gaps. This order of document identifiers then determines the order of the postings
