I am indexing my data both through DataImportHandler and per transaction from
JPA using @PostXXX listeners.
UpdateRequestProcessor looks like exactly what I need.... I don't suppose
there's a scriptable subclass available in 1.4 that is configured from
schema.xml? :-)
Thanks guys!

If you're using DataImportHandler, a custom (Java or script)
transformer could do this.
Also an UpdateProcessor could do it.
But there is no conditional copyField capabilities otherwise.
Keep in mind that pragmatically, if you're doing your own indexing
code, why not have a line like this? :)
max_side = (length > width) ? length : width
