Allow copyField directives to be controled by another (boolean) field
---------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SOLR-2149
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2149
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Peter Wolanin



Thinking about alternative approaches to the problem outlined in SOLR-2010, it 
occurs to me that there are many cases where it would be useful to be able to 
control copyField behavior rather than having to fully populate or omit 
document fields.  In regards to spellcheck, I could then have a few different 
spellcheck indexes each built from a different field  and indicate for each 
document whether it's text should be added to each of the different spellcheck 
fields.

I'm imagining a general syntax like this:

{code}
 <copyField source="body" dest="teaser" maxChars="300" 
controlField="populate_teaser"/>
{code}

If not sure if Solr would could use the value of a control field only matches 
the "ignored" field type, but that's what I'm thinking about as one 
possibility.  In other words, I can pass index-time flags into the document 
that are reflected in the terms of what's indexed but not explicitly stored in 
the document.
