I *think* the missing step here is that while DocLists can't easily be modified, new SolrDocument and SolrDocumentList classes have been added since 1.2. Solr by defualt doesn't use them, but the built in Solr ResponseWriters can output them, so your custom component can build a SolrDocumentList bsed on the DocList, and add whatever fields you want. I'm not sure if there are any help methods to do the DocList->SolrDocumentList conversion. (Ryan: keep my honest if this isn't what you had in mind) -Hoss
