Hi all, I think nobody can question that this configuration parameter is neccessary. Most of the use cases need distinct values.
I use solr 5.2.1 for an ebook store. I use the suggester component for autocomplete titles, authors, publishers. Some of our publishers have thousand of ebooks. In theese cases I got back a json with thousands of identical cases which obviously not what I want.
