What do people think of a slight change to the SearchHandler whereby
we guarantee that the DebugComponent is always last in the list,
regardless of whether or not there are custom components or not? I
know I can explicitly declare all my components, but I don't want to
have to keep that list in sync. I'd rather just make sure that
DebugComponent runs after all the other ones.
In other words, declaring something like:
<arr name="last-components">
<str>myGreatComponent</str>
</arr>
actually means last - 1 in the ordering of components. The reason is,
say that "myGreatComponent" actually alters the results of the
original response. When one gets explains() back (debugQuery=true)
the results are based on the original result set and not the one from
myGreatComponent.
Another alternative, is to allow the config to insert a component at a
specific place, but that is a bit problematic in that it requires one
to know the exact ordering of each of the components.
