Hi folks: We like to propose a feature to add additional per-term metadata to the term diction.
Currently, the TermsEnum API returns docFreq as its only meta-data. We needed a way to quickly get the first and last doc id in the postings without having to scan through the entire postings list. We have created a PR on our own fork and we would like to contribute this back to the community. Please let us know if this is something that's useful and/or fits Lucene's roadmap, we would be happy to submit a patch. https://github.com/dashbase/lucene-solr/pull/1 Thank you -John
