Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-5325:
-------------------------------------


is there a way to move out the setScorer method? it seems like this one really 
does not belong, e.g. should be at a higher level and this api should just have 
the per-document get ? I like David's idea about separate boolean exists (or 
simply have method to get the Bits for this at a higher level). 

to me that is better, because then its up to the thing using it to determine 
how null values should be treated. For example expressions/ could treat them as 
NaN rather than 0, maybe that is more intuitive (especially with respect to 
sorting).

> Spinoff from LUCENE-5298: ValueSource and FunctionValues are abstract APIs 
> which exist under the queries/ module. That causes any module which wants to 
> depend on these APIs (but not necessarily on any of their actual 
> implementations!), to depend on the queries/ module. If we move these APIs 
> under core/, we can eliminate these dependencies and add some mock impls for 
> testing purposes.
> Quoting Robert from LUCENE-5298:
> {quote}
> we should eliminate the suggest/ dependencies on expressions and queries, the 
> expressions/ on queries, the grouping/ dependency on queries, the spatial/ 
> dependency on queries, its a mess.
> {quote}
> To add to that list, facet/ should not depend on queries too.
