------------------------------------
Summary: Should we add a "slow range query" to xxxPoint classes?
Key: LUCENE-10580
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-10580
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: core/index
Reporter: Greg Miller
Users that index 2D point data have the option of running a range query with,
1) the points index (via {{LongPoint#newRangeQuery}}), or 2) a doc values field
(via {{SortedNumericDocValuesField#newSlowRangeQuery}}). But if users are
indexing points data in higher dimensions, there's no equivalent "slow" query
that I'm aware of (relying on doc values). It's useful to have both and be able
to wrap them in {{IndexOrDocValuesQuery}}.
I wonder if we should model a "point" doc value type (could just extend from
{{BinaryDocValuesField}}) that supports creating "slow" range queries?
