Hi Renaud, You should be able to do your own merging by overriding the merge method of Fields/Terms/PostingsConsumer classes, in your codec. Each of these classes has a default impl for merge, which just does the normal postings merging (fields/terms are merged, docs/positions/payloads are concatenated, mapping around deletions).
Please give feedback how it goes! These are very new and still very malleable APIs...
