> While trying to do some refactoring, I noticed funky things going on with some codecs.
> One problem is that DocIdSetIterator says the following:
> {noformat}
> Returns the following:
>    * <ul>
>    * <li>-1 or {@link #NO_MORE_DOCS} if {@link #nextDoc()} or
>    * {@link #advance(int)} were not called yet.
> {noformat}
> But most 4.0 Docs/DocsAndPositionsEnums don't actually do this (e.g. return 0). instead we 
> are relying on Scorers to 'cover' for them, which is inconsistent. Some scorers actually rely
> upon this behavior, for example look at ReqExclScorer.toNonExcluded(), it calls docId() on the
> excluded part before it calls nextDoc()
> So we need to either fix these enums, change these enums to not extend DocIdSetIterator (and redefine
> what the actual contract should be for these enums), change DocIdSetIterator, or something else.
> Fixing the enums to return -1 here when they are uninitialized kinda sucks for the ones summing up
> document deltas...
