------------------------------------

bq. but what else does it use/might it use in the future?

It's always hard to argue with arguments like that. I don't know what it will 
need in the future, but I'd bet not much more. And if it will, we can just 
include that file.

Let's remember what's the purpose of this issue - to allow people to use the 
great tools that we have (mostly b/c of you !) in their test environment. Like 
Uwe mentions, test someone's TokenStream is a very useful utility. I don't 
believe they want to run TestIndexWriter in their environment, and extending it 
doesn't sound very useful. So I dunno, I feel that shipping just a few select 
files will help users eventually and ease our life (c'mon, how complicated is 
adding another file to the list of files?). We can attach a README in the .jar 
which explains what does each class do.

> The test classes are useful for writing unit tests for code external to the 
> Lucene project. It would be helpful to build a jar of these classes and 
> publish them as a maven dependency.
