David Smiley commented on SOLR-139:
-----------------------------------

It's unclear to me how your suggestion, Paul, is better.  If at the end of the 
day, all the fields must be stored on disk somewhere (and that is the case), 
then why complicate matters and split out the storage of the fields into a 
separate index?  In my case, nearly all of my fields are stored so this would 
be redundant.  AFAIK, having your "main" index "small" only matters as far as 
index storage, not stored-field storage.  So I don't get the point in this.

> 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.
