multivalued dynamicField matching 'score' causes text response writers to output score as an array

With a schema that includes a dynamic field that matches 'score' (e.g. s* or even just *) text response writers (json, python, etc...) will return score as an array, e.g.:
"score": [
17.522964
]

For now, a workaround (courtesy of hoss) is adding a non-indexed, non-stored, non-multivalued 'score' field to schema.xml, e.g.:
<field name="score" type="string" indexed="false" stored="false" multiValued="false"/>

Note that this will happen for anybody following the current (or older) example schema.xml where "*" was used to ignore undesired fields (from: SOLR-217):
