It's good to see this discussion finally happen. Some things are in Solr (e.g. faceting, function queries, Yonik's recent join patch, ...) that probably belong in Lucene. As someone contributing functionality to Lucene/Solr in SOLR-2155 (Geospatial search via geohash prefix techniques), anecdotally I find it most convenient for the code to span both Lucene and Solr, particularly Solr on the testing side. (Of course each patch is different but this is my experience) The testing infrastructure on the Solr side is excellent. As I look to implement sorting it's going to be difficult to have a non-Solr user take the code since the sorting capability is wrapped up in Solr concepts like function queries.
