Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-6966:
-----------------------------------

Or do like ES, identify text as {{string}}, and create a {{copyField src="*" 
dst="_all"}} which is of type text, and use this as {{df}} by default.
Then, novice users will be able to query their newly created index from Admin 
UI, they will be able to facet on the string fields, such as {{city}}...
Advanced users would probably use schema api to remove the catch-all 
{{copyField}}, and predefine field types for their fulltext fields etc.

> For Data Driven Schema, consider multi-word text fields to be text, not 
> string field types

> A tricky situation, for sure, but I suspect in data-driven mode, when field 
> guessing, we should treat multi-word strings as text by default, not String, 
> so that the user's first experience is they can search against that field.
> Alternatively, create a second field that is either the String version or the 
> Text version.
> Even more advanced option: use pseudo-fields (like what we do for some 
> spatial) and intelligently use one or the other depending on the context: 
> e.g. faceting uses the one form, search uses the other.
