The manual suggested by Otis would happen inside of Solr. We use the last-component to do the sub-query and then merge the results. Since it's a new sub-query the relevancy and sorting should be independent of the main query.

Where would this manual merging/joining occur? At the client-side or inside Solr, before returning the results ?
