I've thought about this approach, but I think it has some scalability issues...
It seems like the re-mapped ids from the secondary index would be
out-of-order, and thus would require caching & sorting of both ids and
scores from that index.

Thanks for the input - for now I gave up on this, after discovering that 
I would have no way to ensure in skipTo() that document id-s are 
monotonically increasing (which seems to be a part of the contract).
