Thanks Otis. Are these Solr specific issues. In looking through Lucene's
FAQ, it seems that you would have to delete the document and re-add. Could a
possible solution be to find the document by the unique-id and set the
fields that were changed or would this not scale when doing a lot of
document field updates?
Which JIRA issues were you referring to?

Thanks
Amit
