Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-264:
-----------------------------------
Rather than mess with query parsing to hack in support for a "random" key word,
a more elegant way would be to create a RandomFieldType specifically for
sorting, then hook it in via the schema in the normal manner.
Since this is such a unique requirement (probably not broadly applicable), one
might want to make this as a custom component in a QueryComponent chain that we
discussed recently.
