Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-2854:
-------------------------------------
Is it possible to remove this method Query.getSimilarity also? I don't
understand why we need this method!

/** Expert: Returns the Similarity implementation to be used for this query.
* Subclasses may override this method to specify their own Similarity
* implementation, perhaps one that delegates through that of the Searcher.
* By default the Searcher's Similarity implementation is returned.*/

> Deprecate SimilarityDelegator and Similarity.lengthNorm

> SimilarityDelegator is a back compat trap (see LUCENE-2828).
> Apps should just [statically] subclass Sim or DefaultSim; if they really need
> "runtime subclassing" then they can make their own app-level delegator.
> Also, Sim.computeNorm subsumes lengthNorm, so we should deprecate lengthNorm
> in favor of computeNorm.
