Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-7157:
-------------------------------------

Karl: i also would like to know if we solve your problem by refining docs to 
say: outer rings should be clockwise, holes counter-clockwise. It would be 
great to enforce this as well, if we had a simple static method that could 
check a Polygon[] and ensure everything is well-formed. We would have to fix 
some tests.

Keep in mind i didn't introduce the docs that say either order is acceptable. I 
merely moved methods around, and either works at the moment because of that.

> The LatLonPoint API implementation pays attention to the order of the points; 
> "clockwise" means one side of the polygon boundary, and "counterclockwise" 
> means the complement.  We need to use that in Geo3DPoint and convert into 
> whatever the underlying GeoPolygonFactory method requires.
