Nik Everett commented on LUCENE-5452:
-------------------------------------
I hadn't really thought of doing it a level above. I like the idea. The only
thing that jumps out at me about doing it this way is that there is only a
single priority queue rather than multiple that have to be maintained and
merged. I'm not sure if that outweighs the extra api complexity this adds.
I'm also pretty sure the higher level approach is more likely to keep the
careful linear reads that the PostingsHighlighter does.

> 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.
