Mike Sokolov commented on LUCENE-5620:
--------------------------------------

That's the approach we have been using, but it leads to a larger index and a 
proliferation of fields. If you want query-time control over whether to search 
case-insensitive, diacritic-insensitive, you have to create four fields, one 
for each combination (now it's only two because of LUCENE-5437).  I also don't 
think this leads to very many other places - what would they be? We have 
sometimes wanted to turn stemming on and off as well, but other than that I 
don't know which other filters would be likely targets for this kind of 
enhancement.

> Following closely the model of LUCENE-5437 (which worked on 
> ASCIIFoldingFilter), this patch adds the ability to preserve the original 
> token to LowerCaseFilter.  This is useful if you want an all-lowercase search 
> term to match without regard to case, while search terms with uppercase 
> letters match in a case-sensitive manner.
