Rick, My use case is this :
I have a set of documents each of which have "sub documents" associated with it. I have this in the json format and I am able to load this into a solr collection. When I search within this set of documents using solr, I want the response in "grouped" json format i.e { "key": "value", "sub_doc": [ { "inner_key": "inner_value" } ] } instead of solrs default flat json format: i.e. { "key":"value", "subdoc.inner_key"= ["inner_value"] } I think the "grouped" json format will be much more intuitive to my end users who are going to use the search P.S: Just to be clear I am not having any trouble querying children/parent document since I have all of this stored using fully qualified names in each document in the collection.
