David Smiley commented on SOLR-12441:
-------------------------------------

I still don't think I appreciate the real-world use case that brings about the 
need to query by level... and so I'd rather not discuss solutions to a problem 
until I appreciate that problem.  I do understand what you mean by query for 
levels >= some number but, practically speaking what might a higher level 
search requirement look like that asks for this?  I could invent crazy ones to 
force fit the need but I'd rather you tell me about a real/practical need.  If 
it seems very esoteric then lets not add it -- it's within the realm of the 
possible for search apps to handle this themselves (e.g. they can add an urp 
themselves).

> As discussed in 
> [SOLR-12298|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-12298], there ought to 
> be an URP to add metadata fields to childDocuments in order to allow a 
> transformer to rebuild the original document hierarchy.
> {quote}I propose we add the following fields:
>  # __nestParent__
>  # _nestLevel_
>  # __nestPath__
> __nestParent__: This field wild will store the document's parent docId, to be 
> used for building the whole hierarchy, using a new document transformer, as 
> suggested by Jan on the mailing list.
> _nestLevel_: This field will store the level of the specified field in the 
> document, using an int value. This field can be used for the parentFilter, 
> eliminating the need to provide a parentFilter, which will be set by default 
> as "_level_:queriedFieldLevel".
> _nestLevel_: This field will contain the full path, separated by a specific 
> reserved char e.g., '.'
>  for example: "first.second.third".
>  This will enable users to search for a specific path, or provide a regular 
> expression to search for fields sharing the same name in different levels of 
> the document, filtering using the level key if needed.
