Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-3736:
-------------------------------------

As i stated earlier on the issue, I agree technically with the builder here, 
for these reasons:
* its not like Document/Field where we worry about making tons of objects in 
indexing
* as far as immutable objects for IndexReader subclasses, thats a no-brainer 
from my perspective.
* we need lots of checks that the 'structure' is the same to support 
per-segment search.

So the only remaining issue is the style... yes I don't personally like 
chaining, but I gave my
+1 to the patch, because I thought Uwe's argument was reasonable (its true its 
not enforced),
and because I don't think its worth arguing over for such an expert API (there 
are bigger wins
when it comes to cleaning up our APIs).

Personally I am glad to Uwe for all this work, we wanted to fix these issues in 
ParallelReader 
for a long time (LUCENE-2766). It needed a policeman to do this, for all the 
checks to be correct,
and good javadocs explaining how to make the composite case work.

So maybe we should just open a separate issue for the style? I just feel we 
would lose so much
if we went back to what we had before this change, I'd really prefer it not be 
backed out for
that reason.

> The plan is:
> - Move all subreaders to ctor (builder-like API. First build reader-set, then 
> call build)
> - Rename ParallelReader to ParallelAtomicReader
> - Add a ParallelCompositeReader with same builder API, but taking any 
> CompositeReader-set and checks them that they are aligned (docStarts 
> identical). The subreaders are ParallelAtomicReaders.
