Method: Sunspot::Query::Sort.special

Defined in:
lib/sunspot/query/sort.rb

.special(name) ⇒ Object

Certain field names are “special”, referring to specific non-field sorts, which are generally by other metrics associated with hits.

XXX I’m not entirely convinced it’s a good idea to prevent anyone from ever sorting by a field named ‘score’, etc.
