Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-6293:
---------------------------------------

Once we fixed the bug, should we put Collections.sort/Arrays.sort on the 
forbidden list? We currently sometimes also use the Java version - especially 
the one from Collections, although this one cannot do in-place sorting and 
clones the whole List into an array for sorting.
