Hi!
I have read a fair amount of SO posts before opening this issue and have gotten the impression that the SDK authors do not want to allow more than ten documents in a
whereIn
as it would slow things down and not scale to possibly thousands of documents. On the other hand (again just my impression) I gathered that the community thinks this filter is fairly useless as it is with that hard set limit and many find possibly weirder methods to achieve the same thing.I don't want to argue for and against as I think that's up to the authors but I'd like to have it mentioned here as I didn't find anything in past issues. Personally I'd like to see more than 10 possible as I think it'd be best to give the developer the freedom of choice and just leave a caution note to the side of potential performance hits.
