Erik Hatcher commented on SOLR-139:
-----------------------------------

I agree in the gut feel to how copyFields and overwrite should work, but what 
about the situation where the client is sending in values for that field also?  
 If it got completely regenerated during a modify operation, data would be 
lost.  No?

Thanks for the note about field-per-user strategy.  In our case, even thousands 
of users is on down the road.   The simplicity of having fields per user is 
mighty alluring and is working nicely in the prototype for now.

> It would be nice to be able to update some fields on a document without 
> having to insert the entire document.
> Given the way lucene is structured, (for now) one can only modify stored 
> fields.
> While we are at it, we can support incrementing an existing value - I think 
> this only makes sense for numbers.
