> Solr function query is a powerful tool to customize search criterion and 
> ranking function (http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FunctionQuery). However, it 
> cannot effectively benefit from field values from multi-valued field, namely, 
> the field(...) function can only read one value and discard the others.
> This limitation has been associated with FieldCacheSource, and the fact that 
> FieldCache cannot fetch multiple values from a field, but such constraint has 
> been largely lifted by LUCENE-3354, which allows multiple values to be 
> extracted from one field. Those values in turn can be used as parameters of 
> other functions to yield a single score.
> I personally find this limitation very unhandy when building a 
> learning-to-rank system that uses many cues and string features. Therefore I 
> would like to post this feature request and (hopefully) work on it myself.
