Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-5092:
--------------------------------------

Since block join scores seem to all score in order (is it true?), I guess this 
could work. However, I'm getting more and more convinced by Robert's point that 
maybe for this issue we shouldn't make the API more complicated and copy the 
filter's DocIdSet to a FixedBitSet when it returns something else (easy to do, 
maybe we should do it now and open another issue to explore other ways to store 
the parent-child mapping).

> The join module throws exceptions when the parents filter isn't a 
> FixedBitSet. The reason is that the join module relies on prevSetBit to find 
> the first child document given a parent ID.
> As suggested by Uwe and Paul Elschot on LUCENE-5081, we could fix it by 
> exposing methods in the iterators to iterate backwards. When the join modules 
> gets an iterator which isn't able to iterate backwards, it would just need to 
> dump its content into another DocIdSet that supports backward iteration, 
> FixedBitSet for example.
