As of 2.4, IndexWriter now provides delete-by-Query, which I think ought to meet nearly all of the cases where someone wants to delete-by-docID using IndexReader. Or are there situations out there where delete-by-docID is still compelling?
Assuming delete-by-DocId means IndexReader.deleteDocument(int) right? That is, you mean the internal Lucene doc id, right?
If you already have the docId, would you need to/want to do delete-by- Query or even delete-by-Term? Isn't delete-by-id a lot lighter weight since it only marks the the doc as deleted, where as d-b-Q can potentially force a flush, etc?
