> Out-of-order currently adds complexity that I would like to remove. Here is a
> selection of issues that come from out-of-order scoring.
> - lots of specializations with collectors: we have two versions of every top
> score/field collector depending on whether it should support out-of-order
> collection or not
> - it feels like it should be an implementation detail of our bulk scorers
> but it also makes our APIs more complicated, eg.
> LeafCollector.acceptsDocsOutOfOrder
> - if you create a TopFieldCollector, how do you know if you should pass
> docsScoredInOrder=true or false? To make the decision, you actually need to
> know whether your query supports out-of-order scoring while the API is on
> Weight.
> I initially wanted to keep it and improve the decision process in LUCENE-6172
> but I'm not sure it's the right approach as it would require to make the API
> even more complicated... hence the suggestion to remove out-of-order scoring
> completely.
