Simon Willnauer commented on LUCENE-2649:
-----------------------------------------

bq. Also, if I have to list out all the fields I'm going to use, that's another 
big step backwards.
I don't think that this is needed at all neither would it be a step backwards - 
not even near to that. But since we aren't on an issue about FieldType lets 
just drop it...

bq. A factory would be a pretty straightforward way to increase the power, by 
allowing users to populate the entry through any mechanism, and optionally do 
extra calculations when the entry is populated (think statistics, 
sum-of-squares, etc).
Whatever you call it (using Factory is fine) but isn't that what you mentioned 
to be insufficient? I mean this is something you would pass to a 
FieldCache.getXXX, right? 

> FieldCache should include a BitSet for matching docs

> The FieldCache returns an array representing the values for each doc.  
> However there is no way to know if the doc actually has a value.
> This should be changed to return an object representing the values *and* a 
> BitSet for all valid docs.
