Description

I know that sounds ridiculous. BUT:

The IndexedDocIterator extends the IntersectingIterator, and it should be possible to supply a single term and receive the matches in the same format the IndexedDocIterator returns boolean AND results. That is – if one wants to search a single term, they shouldn't have to use a different iterator if they want the iterator stack to return the document in the value (as opposed to just returning the index key with no iterator at all).

Does this make sense? Should I submit the patch?
