+/**
+ * Base class for all of the {@link IndexHandler} classes which need to build 
their indexes from the forward index.

Review Comment:
   I am a bit confused by this. 
   
   IIUC, a particular `IndexHandler` is supposed to create that index or remove 
/ cleanup / update that index. 
   
   We recently added `ForwardIndexHandler` as well which can rewrite forward 
index (for work done in https://github.com/apache/pinot/issues/9348) and also 
remove forward index for noForwardIndex feature. 
   
   Similarly this PR **uses ForwardIndexHandler to rebuild forward index** 
using some other structures.
   
   So I am not sure if above statement **"all of the IndexHandler classes which 
need to build their indexes from the forward index.** is exactly true or 
intuitive ?
