> What if we always set the docvalue type to SORTED_NUMERIC, even if the user is just storing single values? Lucene will optimize the storage if all docs are single-valued, and it's already a common pattern to look for this optimization on read This sounds good to me. The main issue I see with this is that our default `SortField`s fail if the field is indexed with multi-valued doc values. But maybe we could make it more lenient and sort on the min value for ascending sorts and max values for descending sorts. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
