Simon Willnauer commented on LUCENE-8268:
-----------------------------------------

a couple of questions:

* in _compareBytesRefArrays_ how can you tell that comparing each individual 
term is correct? 
* is _BytesRefIterator_ an option as a return value and would it make sense. 
It's hart do tell without a single user of this. 
* In the current context there is no gain changing this interface. Can we add a 
users of multiple terms?

> MatchesIterator.term() should return an array

> At the moment, we return a single BytesRef from MatchesIterator.term(), which 
> works well for the queries that currently implement this.  This won't be 
> enough for queries that operate on more than one term, however, such as 
> phrase or Span queries.
> In preparation for LUCENE-8249, this issue will change the method to return 
> an array of BytesRef
