Synthetic source has a habit of reordering text fields. This frustrates highlighting because it *often* wants to use index structures to find the offsets to values in the field. This disables the FVH highlighter for multi-valued text fields when synthetic source is enabled and runs the unified highlighter in "analyze" mode when synthetic source is enabled. That's *enough* to stop them from spitting out wrong answers. We might be leaving some performance on the table when the unified highlighter works on a single valued text field that is indexed with offsets or term vectors. We don't really expect that to be common at all though because *generally* folks will enable synthetic source to save space and adding offsets or term vectors is quite space inefficient. If it comes up, we might be able to improve here.

Can you add a test that this also occurs when you ask for fragments in order, so that we exercise both FragmentsBuilder implementations?
