> I'm opening this issue to discuss adding DocValue support to {{\{Int|Long|Float|Double\}Range}} field types. Since existing numeric range fields already provide the methods for encoding ranges as a byte array I think this could be as simple as adding syntactic sugar to existing range fields that simply build an instance of {{BinaryDocValues}} using that same encoding. I'm envisioning something like {{doc.add(IntRange.newDocValuesField("intDV", 100)}} But I'd like to solicit other ideas or potential drawbacks to this approach.
