Hmmm. Each index build will require a potentially resource intensive sort - it's not obvious to me that this would actually be better. If you load after creating indexes you're able to do this, and it's an interesting Q whether a pipeline is better or not.... I think we actually chose not to do this due to the resource implications. But - open Q. I'd put it down on the wish list, though - online single index construction would be higher on the list, for instance, IMO.
