Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-5452:
-------------------------------------

Hi Nik, is there an advantage with the current patch over doing this "a level 
above" (e.g. combining after-the-fact?)

A custom passage formatter has access to the score, so an alternative would be 
do this with a formatter+highlightFieldsAsObject?

> Combine matches from multiple fields into one with the postings highlighter

> Like you can do with the FVH, it'd be nice to be able combine matches from 
> multiple fields with the postings highlighter.
> Note that the postings highlighter doesn't do phrase matching and doesn't use 
> term boosts so some of the FVH's field combining features won't work.  It'd 
> be nice to get some of them, though.
