Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-6060:
--------------------------------------------
I think SimpleFSLockFactory is still able to leave leftover write.lock in the
index ... it doesn't use deleteOnExit, so that JVM bug doesn't apply to it.
> Remove IndexWriter.unLock

> This method used to be necessary, when our locking impls were buggy, but it's
> a godawful dangerous method: it invites index corruption.
> I think we should remove it.
> Apps that for some scary reason really need it can do their own thing...
