Hi,

I spent some time on solr in order to figure out what
it can do. I sill have some problems finding the right
way to do my search.

I have a bunch of heterogenous objects that I want to
search. All of these objects belong to an owner. When
a search is issued I like not only to find the individual
objects but the grouped by their owner.

For grouping I didn't find much valuable other than to
do this with a response writer. I tried collapsing but
this is not what I mean. And facets are still something
different. The only thing is the XSLTResponseWriter that
does grouping of stuff afterwards. 

What is the best way to achieve this:

- how to group stuff when there are many results to take
  into account
- how to score based on grouped objects. To group with
  the response writer is not hard. But if I want to do
  pagination I like to have the top scored group at the
  top of the results. Is there a way to do so?
- I like to only show the fields that match a query. As 
  someone hinted here on the ML doing this with highlighting
  is the only way I found. But then I don't understand that
  I can provide a field list (hl.fl) but this does not take
  a * for every field like some of the other parameters do.

Thanks in advance,

Norbert
