It's not expected behaviour, it's a bug in the batch inserting code
which I introduced when meddling with ValueContext.numeric behaviour.
I'm planning to get rid of that ValueContext thing and instead, when
indexing a number, index that in lucene as a string (just as usual)
_and_ numerically (for optimized/cool number range queries). Hopefully
next milestone. But for now I'll fix this bug.
