Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-139:
-----------------------------------

So the big issue now is that I don't think we can use
getStoredFields() and do document modification outside the
update handler.  The biggest reason is that I think we need
to be able to update documents atomically (in the sense that
updates should not be lost).

Consider the usecase of adding a new tag to a multi-valued
field:  if two different clients tag a document at the same
time, it doesn't seem acceptable that one of the tags could
be lost.  So I think that we need a modifyDocument() call on
updateHandler, and perhaps a ModifyUpdateCommand to go along
with it.

I'm not sure yet what this means for request processors. 
Perhaps another method that handles the reloaded
storedFields?

> 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.
