Hi all,  
I have reproduced Issue 1305 without any nested fields. I guess this means  
that anybody using more than one shard and faceting with small "size" values  
may be in trouble because it gives more or less random results. The complete  
script for reproducing the error is attached in my comment.

There are no comments on the issue. Shouldn't this be considered a serious  
problem or am I missing something?
