Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-773:
-----------------------------------

I haven't yet looked at the contributions (but I did read the whitepaper).

It seems like we want lat+lon in the same field value.  That will remove the 
need for any other mechanism to correlate the two (what lat goes with what lon) 
and will allow future indexing mechanisms that operate on both values at once. 

Do we need a new basic output type (in addition to str, int, long, etc)?  For 
now perhaps we should just use a string representation?
 <str name="my_house">12.345,-67.89</str>  
  or in JSON
"my_house":"12.345,-67.89"

So breaking things down, it seems like we basically need to be able to:
1) filter by a bounding box
2) filter by a geo radius (impl could first get the bounding box and narrow 
within that...)
3) sort by distance
4) return the distance

It also seems like there could be an opportunity to make much/most of this 
generic (not specific to geosearch).
