If you were to implement per-field Collators, how would you
go about
it? There's been a long-standing request for KinoSearch to
implement
arbitrary sorting.
The conclusion I reached was that you needed to have a
dedicated
TermEnum for each field, implying individual term dictionary
files
(.tis, .tii). But maybe there's a better way.
