Unfortunately at this time, you'll have to query the document and go through the list of fields to determine which need to be deleted, then build a request that deleted them. I don't know how hard it is to accomplish this in Solr. Getting it implemented might require a bunch of people standing up and saying "we want this!" Thanks, Shawn
