      The following are all permitted in 4.4.4, although weights are only meaningful for text indexes:

      coll.createIndex({a: 1, c: 1}, {weights: {d: 1}})
coll.createIndex({a: 1, c: 1}, {weights: "$**"})
coll.createIndex({a: 1, c: 1}, {weights: {}})
coll.createIndex({a: 1, c: 1}, {weights: "$foo"})

      Consider banning them before we release API Version 1.
