[jira] [Created] (LUCENE-8069) Allow index sorting by field length

Adrien Grand created LUCENE-8069:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow index sorting by field length
                 Key: LUCENE-8069
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8069
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: Adrien Grand
            Priority: Minor


Short documents are more likely to get higher scores, so sorting an index by field length would mean we would be likely to collect best matches first. Depending on the similarity implementation, this might even allow to early terminate collection of top documents on term queries.
